ebooks History of the Navy during the Rebel; V2: Volume Two (Civil War) by Charles Boynton in History

Description

This book; One of the Few; The Proud; The Marines; follows my life from birth to my retirement after twenty-four years in the Marine Corps. This book; however; is not about my life.The objective of this book is to show you; the reader; what is takes; what you must do; and what you go through to become a professional Marine.Out of the thousands of men who enter the Marine Corps each year; only a few deserve the right to be called a professional Marine. Some make a career of the Corps and even stay in long enough to retire; but they never reach their goal of being a professional.I believe I deserve that right. You be the judge.
