5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent detail about USMC Boot Camp, May 12, 2007
This review is from: To Be a U.S. Marine (To Be a) (Paperback)
As a poolee's mom, I took away from this book not only information about the Marine Corp and boot camp that will help me understand what he will go through but also increased pride in what he will become. Must reading for parents of future Marines!

Excellent, May 29, 2005
This review is from: To Be a U.S. Marine (To Be a) (Paperback)
This has to be one of the most impressive books on the United States Marine Corps that I have read to date. The photographic images are a true depiction of how our sons and daughters are taken and molded into one the the finest fighting forces our country has today.
I was actually surprised to find my own son included in the photographic documentation of a group of recruits going through basic training at Parris Island. This books stirred many memories of what I went through while my son was training to become a Marine.
I would highly recommend this book to any person who is considering becoming a Marine as I would also do for the families of recruits or Marines.

My husband is completely engrossed in this book right now because he will be starting basic training soon. It's comforting to have a peek at bootcamp life before he goes- not just for him, but for me as well.
