Happy birthday @USMC ! To honor this special occasion, we’ve dug up some interesting documents to share with you. President Eisenhower signed executive order #10538 establishing an official seal for the United States Marine Corps in 1954. #IkeLife #GoArmyBeatNavy

Ike leading the way as usual.

On May 26, 1954, President Eisenhower (@Ikelibrary) signed legislation establishing November 11 as a day to honor all veterans who served and fought for the United States in any war, not just those who fought in WWI. #VeteransDay #Veterans #NationalArchives

Nothing beats walking into the airport first thing in the morning and seeing this display. Well done, @FlyICT (also known as Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport in Wichita, Kansas). #wichita #Kansas #ilikeike #ikelife

Monday, Nov. 11 is Veterans Day! Since we're closed on Mondays, we're happy to offer everyone free admission to our museum on Tuesday, Nov. 12. THANK YOU, VETERANS!!!!! (Five exclamation points because Ike was a five-star general.) #veterans #veteransday #ilikeike #ikelife

Is No Shave November still a thing? All the dudes who work at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library & Museum would like to know before time to get ready for work tomorrow morning. #NoShaveNovember #ikelife #ilikeike

Ike led the new Tank Corps during WWI. Commanding more than 10,000 soldiers -- with virtually no supervision, no training manuals, and for several months NO TANKS! Ike quickly earned the respect of his men and his superiors. #IkeLife #ArchivesSalute #ArchivesHashtagParty
