About 
40 
student 
and 

faculty 
veterans 
gathered 

Thursday 
night 
near 
the 

flagpole in the Diag with cake 
and camaraderie to ring in 
the 241st birthday of the U.S. 
Marine Corps.

Fifteen attendees wore only 

their boots and underwear 
— referred to as “silkies” by 
attendees — as part of the 
Veterans Week tradition. The 
cake was cut with a traditional 
non-commission 
officer 

sword that students received 
approval from the Division 
of Public Safety and Security 
to have on campus, according 
to 
lecturer 
Eric 
Fretz, 
a 

University of Michigan alum. 
The ceremony was observed 
by Marines who were no 
longer on active or on reserve 
duty, with the goal of showing 

respect for the members and 
traditions of their community, 
Fretz said, and that as part 
of the ceremony, the cake 
first went to the oldest and 

youngest Marine present.

Business senior Jonathan 

Chen, president of the Student 
Veterans 
Association, 
said 

he organized the event for 
the first time three years ago 

and has been coordinating it 
ever since. Chen said it felt 
particularly 
meaningful 
to 

be surrounded by his peers 
because this will be his last 
year participating in the event.

“I think the biggest thing 

is … nobody’s going to do it 
but us,” Chen said. “This kind 
of camaraderie and revelry 
and us being kind of stupid as 
well — it brings us together in 
the end of the day. In terms 
of social identities, this is our 
culture, this is what we’re 
used to.”

Art & Design senior Julian 

Rebel, who was given the first 
piece of cake as the oldest 
veteran at the ceremony for 
the second year in a row, 
said he feels grateful for the 
community 
they 
have 
on 

campus.

“I’m glad we practice this 

tradition 
on 
this 
campus, 

not just because of the large 
amount 
of 
veterans 
that 

we have here, but because 
it’s something that’s really 
sentimental 
to 
each 
and 

every one of us,” Rebel said. 
“We’re very fortunate to be 
in this town where they are 
very receptive of veterans in 
general.”

Student veterans commemorate 
creation of U.S. Marine Corps.
