Boston: Bantam, 1977. 369 pp. "Chesty Puller, the roughest, toughest Marine of them all, had one simple, brutal rule: 'Kill or be killed!'. The greatest fighting man ever to pull on Marine boots enlisted in the Corps in 1918. He loved to fight, fought over a hundred combats in the Banana Wars, commanded the Horse Marines in Peking in the '30s, battled his way from island to bloody island in the Pacific in World War II, and bulled his way through the savage Korean War. Finally, as the most praised and cursed and controversial figure in the Marines, he was forced to retire at age 57." "The only Marine in history to win five Navy Crosses." Interior - light browning to pages and inside of covers, otherwise clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - very light browning, very light edge wear/wrinkling, small soft corner creases.. 7th Printing. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good -.
