Marines: An Illustrated History by Chester G. Hearn
The history of the United States Marine Corps is all about tenacity, how a handful of bedraggled and unappreciated ships' guards known as Continental marines grew from a sprinkling of untrained officers and men more than 230 years ago to become in the 21st century a superb, multi-functional, ready-response force combining ground, air, and sea power. The transformation has never been smooth. Besides fighting on distant shores or quelling disturbances at home, the Marines have had to battle against penurious politicians and interservice rivals. The constant pressure to be the best created a special bond - a fellowship of determined fighters on earth, continuously modifying their doctrine to respond to the evolving global war on terrorism.
In this powerful book, heavily illustrated with dramatic action photographs, paintings, and detailed maps, the engaging text describes how today, with their own ships, aircraft, and special operations capability, Marines have become the most versatile, self-sufficient, all-encompassing, ready-response warriors on the planet. They are uniquely trained in amphibious warfare and organized into highly mobile attack groups operating from specially designed ships. They fly fighter-bombers, helicopters, and surveillance planes, and are equipped with the very best weapons and equipment.
Leathernecks enjoy being known as the elite; on countless battlefields around the world they have earned it.
Hard cover. 192 pages. Approximately 10 inches by 10 inches.
Had this flag flown in honor of my son’s retirement from the USCG. My husband and I had one done for our Navy retirement in 1997. Perfect gift for the retiree of any military branch.
I received the flag I orders along with a very nice certificate of the date and time the flag was flown over the USS Arizona. Thr flag was flown the day I requested and dedicated to the person whom the flag honored and was for. Great service and the flag was delivered in a timely manner.
I forgot to buy a lighter for my brother-in-law when visiting Pearl Harbor. I preferred one online and it was at my front door in Wisconsin 3 days later. Great product and very quick shipping!
I am really pleased with my flag in honor of my brother. The only thing was that they didn’t put he was in the U.S.M.C. Other than that I greatly appreciate what they do. Been neat to have a pic of it.
