Publisher Description
The attack on Pearl Harbor swept America into the raging heart of the war. The stormy South Pacific presented a daring new challenge, and the men of the Corps were ready to fight. An elite fraternity united by a glorious tradition of courage and honor, the Marine Raiders were bound to a triumphant destiny.…
“For some of us, reading The Corps series is like eating popcorn at the movies: you can never eat just one kernel, and you can never get enough. Griffin captures the smell of the smoke of battle as vividly as if one were on the beach at Guadalcanal.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
“This man has really done his homework.… I confess to impatiently awaiting the appearance of succeeding books in the series.” —The Washington Post

"An excellent follow-up to Semper Fi. I like how this expanding story is about the characters and not solely about the war. In fact, the war just happens to be a backdrop for the real action, which is the development of Ken, Ernie, Pick and Company...A fun, quick read!"

" As nice as the first volume of this series. Honest Story of a Marine that does not do the stuff we've already read a million times about, loyal but not hyper-patriotic, very pleasant to read! "

— Cori, 8/18/2012 -
" This author loves the Marine Corps. Love interests are unrealistic and sophmoric as they were in the first book. The explanations of the training, etc., of Marines is interesting to me. "
