A must-have edition for any Marine Corps shooting competitor or those with an interest in American shooting competition history. • U.S. and International matches • Olympics participation • Vintage shooting positions • Team-based competition • Automatic weapon markmanship • The Krag, Springfield, and Garand in competition • Equipment tricks and maintainance • Amusing stories and anecdotes Numerous appendices give information on the most coveted awards and trophies, such as the Lauchheimer, Elliot Trophy, Lloyd Trophy, San Diego Trophy, The Holcomb, Edson and many more. Generously illustrated with historical photos from every era. This edition features a new Foreword by former Marine Shooting team competitor/coach MSgt Jim Owens. It is in this historical record you will find many clues to the US Marines eternal emphasis on rifle marksmanship as a key tenet of their organization. Commandant Gen. David M. Shoup said it best in his Preface to this book: "The triumphs and the defeats at Camp Perry, Wakefield, and Sea Girt played a fundamental part in the training and molding of combat Marines. The firing lines of these famous ranges produced shooters and techniques that augured well the successful battles of France, Nicaragua, Haiti, the Pacific Isles and Korea."

Proficiency training discussed in this book includes the use of sabers, cannons, sea mines, bayonets, tank weapons, aerial gunnery, bombs, and other weapons. Emerson integrates discussion of the criteria, people, and rationale behind each award into this historical account. Emerson’s emphasis on national rifle and pistol matches, the history of selected army and NRA trophies, and significant players in the army’s weapons training development enhances the comprehensive appeal of the latest contribution to military history by this experienced author.
