Post; 03USMC'S Reading List for Marine Wannabes


Okay the Commandant has his reading list, so I was thinking why shouldn't 03USMC not have his own list.

Since History and Tradition are alarge part of the Marine Corps, it's never a bad Idea to gain knowledge.

So heres my list.

Mercy Warriors-Saving lives under fire - John "Doc" Combs

Colder than Hell (Chosin Reservior)-Joseph R.Owen

Con Thien, The hill of Angels-James P. Coan

Ambush Valley-Eric Hammel

Marine Rifleman- Lt Col Wesely Fox USMC (ret)

The Hill Fights: The first battle of Khe Sahn-Edward F. Murphy

West Dickens Avenue: A Marine at Khe Sahn

The Long and the Short and the Tall- Alvin M. Josephy Jr.

Storm on the Horizon-David J.Morris

McCoys Marines Darkside to Baghdad- John Koopman

I am my Brothers Keeper- GySgt Jason Doran USMC (ret)

An Nasiriyah:The fight for the bridges-Gary Livingston

Those are just to get you started .
