The Ragdoll And The Marine: A Memoir - Nicole Calvo is a CHamoru author, and native daughter of Guam. Calvo’s memoir, The Ragdoll and The Marine, gives view to the CHamoru experience on Guam during World War 2 through her mother’s personal accounts. In addition, the premise revolves around how in the midst of turbulence, a simple gesture of kindness can last a lifetime. A theme worthy of noting is the lingering effects of war, and how it can fatefully shape generations after. Calvo’s down-to-earth narrative makes for a charming read to complement such an endearing, adventurous, and historical story.

Half way through the book and enjoying the read. Amazing that the little girl was connected to the soldier who gave her the rag doo; quite a historical moment

When my wife and I visited Hawaii in August 2014 I bought one of these shirts while I was over there but have only worn it on rare occasions because I thought I would not be able to get the same T-shirt again. Having gone online and found they are still available I bought another one and now wear my original one every week. They fit perfectly, are made of great quality material, good price and the graphics look stunning and I have since bought a cap to match.
Wearing it now as I write this. Purchased one in January this year when I visited Pearl Harbor and subsequently left it behind at a restaurant and never found it.Be more careful now
I purchased this same mug when my wife & I visited Pearl Harbor in May of this year, and I was so impressed with the quality and graphics that I bought another one for a friend.
It's a great book. I had the book years ago. Everyone should get the book who is interested about the USS Enterprise CV 6 And her Air group beginning of World War Two.
I bought this book for my staff to celebrate Nurses Day! What an honor to share this book with them, a first-hand account of the sacrifices and challenges that helped mold our profession. As active-duty uniformed service nurses, we must always remember that although these individuals may not have fought the war with a weapon, they fought with their hearts and souls to ensure that the soldiers and all involved were cared for and loved.
