	Anthony was a soldier in the United States Army and a Marine in the United States Marine Corps, who served during the Spanish-American War. Anthony enlisted in the Army on February 1 1875 and served two five-year enlistments before joining the Marine Corps at Brooklyn, New York, on July 18 1885. He served ashore (at the New York Navy Yard) and afloat in the Armored Cruiser [[BROOKLYN CA 3\|USS BROOKLYN ACR-3]] before reporting for duty on May 12 1897 in the Marine guard of the battleship MAINE. An explosion rocked MAINE as she lay at anchor in Havana Harbor on the night of February 15 1898. As she began to settle, Private Anthony, who was on watch at the time, hastened immediately forward toward the Captain's cabin to inform him of the event. In the darkness, the Marine bumped into Captain Charles D. Sigsbee as the latter groped his way toward the outer hatch of the super-structure. Anthony apologized and made his report "that the ship has blown up and is sinking." The two men then proceeded together toward the quarterdeck. "The special feature in this case of service performed by Private Anthony," Sigsbee later recounted in a letter to John D. Long, the Secretary of the Navy, "is that, on an occasion when a man's instinct would lead him to safety outside the ship, he started into the superstructure and toward the cabin, irrespective of the danger. MAINE's former Captain then recommended that the Marine be promoted to Sergeant, which was accomplished on April 14 1898. Anthony had meanwhile joined the Marine guard of the cruiser DETROIT on March 5 1898 and served in that ship until transferred to duty at the Marine Barracks, New York Navy Yard, on September 10 of that year. Upon expiration of his enlistment, Anthony was honorably discharged at New York on June 26 1899 with the rank of Sergeant Major. Anthony died in New York City on November 24 1899 and was buried at Evergreens Cemetery in Brooklyn.

<h3>Ship Name and Designation History</h3>
This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during
its lifetime.
The list is in chronological order.

<h3>Naval Covers</h3>
This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the
ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for
example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same
ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner).
Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).

Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't
take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date
range for covers on that page.

</ol>
<p> </p>

<h3>Postmarks</h3>
This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a
separate set of postmarks for each incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry
in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). Within each set,
the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one
postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of earliest
known usage.

A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an
image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN
THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.
<br/> <br/>
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the
existing example.
