What does the red stripe on dress blue trousers represent?

The red stripe on the United States Marine Corps (USMC) Dress Blues uniform is also referred to as a 'blood stripe' or 'NCO stripe'. The red stripe is worn by Marine Non-Commissioned Officers referred to as NCOs (Corporal thru Sergeant Major). According to the USMC Museum, 'The Blood Stripe Marine Corps tradition maintains that the red stripe worn on the trousers of officers and noncommissioned officers, and commonly known as the "blood stripe," commemorates those Marines killed storming the castle of Chapultepec in 1847. Although this belief is firmly embedded in the traditions of the Corps, it has no basis in fact. The use of stripes clearly predates the Mexican War.' The stripe is 1 1/8 inches wide. The Marine Corps officers wear a stripe of 1 1/2 inches wide. When a Marine is promoted to Corporal the wearing of the NCO stripe is an important milestone in his career as a Marine, for his has now moved to the first stage of leadership of Marines. The Marine Corps League (MCL), a veterans service organization, made up of active, reserve, retired and veteran Marines and Fleet Marine Force (FMF) Navy Corpsmen also wears the Dress Blues trousers as part of their uniform. The red stripe is authorized for wear on the MCL Dress Blues trousers for the organization's regular members only. MCL Associate members are not authorized to wear the red stripe. The Commandant of the Marine Corps thru the Marine Corps Uniform Board has approved the privilege to the regular members of the MCL. Semper Fidelis,
