I have used Gung-Ho to
welcome you to my personal Web site because it characterizes what
these pages are all about. The United States Marine Raiders. The
word from the Chinese means literally "Work together," but
has been corrupted to mean some thing less.
The Raiders understood the
meaning of the word and lived out "work together" in training and
combat. However, they would define it another way, "lookout for the
man on your right and the man on your left." They realized nothing
was of more importance in any life situation and it remains deeply
ingrained in their character today.
Author in the Corps & Korea!
MY PURPOSE
There
exist today official histories of Marine Raider operations as well
fictional and nonfictional accounts of their activities. I am not
qualified, neither is it my intention to supplement such histories and
records. These pages are personal, based entirely on my reaction and
evaluation of events in my experience as I witnessed them, understood
them and remember them. Supplemental information is provided from
various sources in the public domain.
