Generation after generation of Marines have grown gray in war in both hemispheres and in every corner of the seven seas; that our country and its citizens might enjoy peace and security.†—Gen. John A. LejeuneSuddenly; from both sides of the road; came a steady stream of tracers from enemy machine guns. Bullets hit Hawkins’s truck and practically shot the engine right out of it. The vehicle stopped dead. Before he could try to get it off to the side of the road; all hell broke loose. During his thirty-three years in the U.S. Marine Corps; Len Maffioli saw combat in World War II; the Korean War; and the war in Vietnam. Maffioli was only eighteen when he stormed Saipan on D-Day in 1944. Shortly after; he was involved in combat operations on Tinian and Iwo Jima–and that was just the beginning of a long and distinguished career. In Korea; he was captured by the Chinese Communist Forces and endured icy prison camp conditions so appalling that four out of ten POWs died. Yet Maffioli not only survived; he escaped and earned himself the Bronze Star. He went on to see combat in Vietnam and serve in many posts and stations around the world; distinguishing himself not only as a combat veteran; but as the very definition of a “Marine’s Marine.â€Vividly depicted by the deft hand of experienced author and Vietnam combat veteran Bruce “Doc†Norton; Grown Gray in War is the story of a man who could be anyone’s father; brother; or son; a man who served in a series of wars that changed the Marine Corps and the nation forever. Major Bruce H. “Doc†Norton; USMC (Ret.) has been a combat veteran; a career Marine Infantry Officer; a military museum director; and an adjunct military history professor; and is an award-winning author of numerous books on and about the United States Marines. Doc has a son; Bruce H. Norton II; and a daughter; Elizabeth A. Norton; who reside in Charleston; South Carolina.

Names; information; all those things that tend to slip our minds over time is brought together for single viewing along with stuff the author found while working undercover. It connects the dots and presents us with a clear picture of who CAIR really is and what its motives are.CAIR is a jihadist organization that keeps changing the names of its Jihadist networks. It does so to keep the people confused. CAIR preaches peace and unity; yet the facts reveal a totally opposite goal - conquest of America by way of Islamic rule. The founders of CAIR are the same founders of the Islamic Association for Palestine; a Jew-hating organization. Hamas; The Holy Land Foundation; The Muslim Brotherhood; The Virginia Jihadist Network are all the same CAIR-inspired Jihadist groups.The FBI has publicly stated that CAIR is a Jihadist network; but we hear very little from the news media about that. While our president and the leftist media preaches tolerance; CAIR is planning our destruction via the force of Sharia Law.Don't believe me? Read the book; gather the information and then go double-check the facts elsewhere. They are indisputable and in your face.No wonder CAIR has gone to court three times to have this book banned.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
