Additional Information
"There has always been something different about the Marines, something special. A young man may be in the Army, but he is a Marine. Like its British counterpart, from its inception the American Marine Corps has been an elite fighting force with extensive ceremonial duties. The Marines have fought far more often and in far more places than any other US service. We may remember them today for Okinawa and Korea; the Marines remember that they also fought in both places in the nineteenth century. Their record of battlefield sacrifice coupled with their almost self-conscious sense of history have made them a symbol that has inspired pride in many people, envy and fear in others..."; top and bottom of spine plus corners of covers are slightly rubbed and bumped; edge wear to dj plus a 2cm tear at the bottom of the crease of the front dj flap; unpriced dj is price clipped
