About This Book

A contemporary look at the United States Marine Corps. It takes readers through the present-day recruitment process, boot camp, officer training, and finally, the honour of membership. It introduces the main players - the drill sergeant, the commandant, the mounted guards on Lippizaner horses, the Honour Guard in Washington - and covers modern-day action from the snows of northern Norway to the tropical terrain of the Philippines and the war-torn streets of Beirut.
