Liss, the oldest Marine present, during the MARFORRES birthday ball at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Nov. 19, 2016.

Each year, a ball is hosted to celebrate the birthday of the Corps and to remember Marines who have given the ultimate sacrifice. Since its establishment in 1775, the Marine Corps has fought and won our nation’s battles. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Melissa Martens/ Released)
