Excerpt from Diary and Letters of a Marine Aviator Tuesday, On Board the Transport Hancock. We January] came on here on Friday, the 29th, and I 1918 found my quarters. Now I know why they call them quarters - eighths would be even better. I almost have to go out in the passage to clean my teeth. But they are very conveniently located, fresh air (at six degrees below zero), have a door just above, and the engine room just below. We've had bitter weather, and expect to sail in the morning at seven. Last night, New Year's Eve, I volunteered to load ship, which pleasant pastime continued until the small hours. 'what a contrast to last New Year's Eve, with Bill Buckley and a tall girl in black at the South Shore Country Club. When the whistles and sirens cut loose at midnight, one of the men, staggering under a load of tin roofs (the Admiral loves tin roofs) remarked, Well, this may be New Year's to home folks but it's just plain first of January to me. The rest of the day was uneventful except for the turkey dinner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from War Birds: Diary of an Unknown Aviator Onward, conscript soldiers, marching as to war, You would not be conscripts, had you gone before. This is a beautiful place. I expect my opinion is largely due to my frame of mind, but it really is pretty. Low jagged hills form the horizon and on the south side of the river as we came up, is solid rock with a little dirt over it in spots but the rock sticking thru everywhere like bones thru a poor horse. We went thru two submarine nets stretched across the mouth of the harbor. I wish I had words to describe the feeling I had when all the soldiers in the harbor came over to tell us howdy. One New Zealander, I think he was a non-com, stood up in the back of the boat and said, You fellows don't look very happy. And I guess our boys don't at that - the doughboys, I mean. We've got over two thousand of them on board of the 9th Infantry Regiment of the regular army. Anyway, New Zealand beat us cheering with their full throated, Hip Hurrah Hip Hurrah Hip Hurrah! But they said they were five weeks out and knew each other pretty well, while our boys aren't acquainted yet.

"The U.S. Marines entered World War I as a small force of seagoing light infantry that had rarely faced a well-armed enemy. On a single faced day, in their initial assault "through the wheat" on Belleau Wood against German machine guns and poison gas shells, the Marines suffered more casualties than they had experienced in all their previous 142 years. Yet at Belleau Wood, Soissons, Blanc Mont, St. Mihiel, and the Meuse-Argonne the Marines proved themselves to be hard-nosed diehards with an affinity for close combat. Nearly a century later Belleau Wood still resonates as a touchstone battle of the Corps." "Two retired Marines, well known for their achievements both in uniform and with the pen, have recorded this rich history in a way that only insiders can. Brig. Gen. Edwin H. Simmons and Col. Joseph H. Alexander recount events and colorful personalities in telling detail, capturing the spirit that earned the 4th Marine Brigade three awards of the French Croix de Guerre and launched the first pioneering detachments of "Flying Leathernecks." Here, hand-to-hand combat seen through the lenses of a gas mask is accompanied by thought-provoking assessments of the war's impact on the Marine Corps."--Jacket.
