Description
Perhaps it's the iconic dress blues or the mystique of Boot Camp as is portrayed in popular film, but when you look into the eyes of a Marine, you will see an intensity that is seldom matched. Marines are just different, but why are they? In its recruit training, known as "Boot Camp," The United States Marine Corps nearly replicates the level of stress, fear, and intensity of combat. It is this experience which separates Marines from other branches of the U.S. military and instills a lifelong pride within its members. If you are drawn to the Marine Corps or perhaps have the title of "Marine" for yourself, then follow this journey onto the hot training grounds of Parris Island and read the thoughts of a Marine recruit. You are invited to United States Marine Corps Recruit training, where a recruit's world is ruled by intensity and violence of action.

The author eloquently captures the minute by minute training syllabus of Marine Recruit Training. I am a retired Marine GySgt.... oft times young men will ask me what Boot Camp is like...now I can honestly say, "read the book by Antonio Salinas". To the author...Semper Fi Marine...job well done!
