Battle Of Bloody Ridge [13+]

of visiting this hallowed ground last year. There was an Australian man there in Honiara, Guadalcanal who was a WW2 expert. He took myself and a group of my colleagues on a battlefield tour, and I must say, it was absolutely moving. Great story. If you ever get the chance to visit the Solomon Islands, I highly recommend it.

the book is titled, " We were one"

if you liked this and would like something more modern, one of the experts Pat O'donnell featured on this video recently wrote a book that covers what happened during the battle of fallujah with my unit...it's definitely worth a read.

he's like the rambo of the 40's! nice job killing those damn gooks! reaal nice

Almighty Father, whose command is over all and whose love never fails, make me aware of Thy presence and obedient to Thy will. Keep me true to my best self, guarding me against dishonesty in purpose in deed and helping me to live so that I can face my fellow Marines, my loved ones and Thee without shame or fear. Protect my family. Give me the will to do the work of a Marine and to accept my share of responsibilities with vigor and enthusiasm. Grant me the courage to be proficient in my daily performance. Keep me loyal and faithful to my superiors and to the duties my country and the Marine Corps have entrusted to me. Make me considerate of those committed to my leadership. Help me to wear my uniform with dignity, and let it remind me daily of the traditions which I must uphold.

If I am inclined to doubt; steady my faith; if I am tempted, make me strong to resist; if I should miss the mark, give me courage to try again. Guide me with the light of truth and grant me wisdom by which I may understand the answer to my prayer. Amen.

Good job Marine

"And we tried to do anything we could to give them the satisfaction of death" Big words coming from such a pampered man.
