23rd Anniversary: January 21, 2026
Supporting Marines and Their Family Members
Were you here 23 years ago when MarineParents.com first started? Do you remember when the website looked like this? Take a trip back in time with us.
On January 21, 2003, Tracy Della Vecchia registered the domain name MarineMoms.us. She had started a website to help families stay in touch with and learn from one another when their Marine sons and daughters deployed to combat in Iraq. Twenty-two years later, she's still working hard and typing as fast as the first NPR radio interview from April 2003. See link.
*The organization later adopted Marine Parents as their name when fathers indicated they also worried about their Marine in combat and wanted to participate.
