Warrior Culture of the U.S. Marines

U.S. Marines have evolved into modern-day American Samurai. These proud patriots have become American Icons, and they live in the province of legend. Through photographs, illustrations, and text, those who delve into this book experience Marine Corps history and traditions. They discover time-honored Marine quotations and re-live the fighting warrior culture of the Corps. Marine slogans? The mascot? The creeds? The commandants? The War Memorial on hallowed ground? Movies about Marines? They are all here. Blood chit? Blood stripe? Tun Tavern? Air America? General Orders? Mameluke and NCO swords? Yes, all of that plus Happy Hour satire for Marine Grunts and Marine Air. Upbeat and gung-ho. Politically Incorrect and proud of it. No profanity. A magnificent book for Marine Warriors and Marine families.
