The Old Corps

great personal story of a young marine, and the search for the meaning of life & forgiveness, must read the sencond book, 'no better way to die' to get the conclusion to his life & search. very fast reading and informative.

From a proud Marine

A very interesting, if innocent tale of Marines in Nam and WWII. The book is innocent in the respect that it deals with issues that all young servicemembers must face, mortality. You can see the main character mature as he gets older and discovers that there really is "no finer way to live or die" than being a Marine. But the book is highly entertaining. Very motivational, great for young people who are thinking of joining the military or young Marines. Semper Fi!
