Synopsis

From the devastating surprise attack on Pearl Harbor to America’s first bold counterstrike against the Japanese on the beaches of Guadalcanal, this compelling story takes you to the front lines of victory and defeat—and into the very heart of courage, loyalty, and valor. It is a heroic story of pride and passion you will never forget.…"Griffin’s books are distinguished by their high action and suspense, his dashing irreverence toward high command, and his clear picture of war and its wartime leaders.” —The Florida Times-Union

Another winner from Griffin. Of course. He's a master of giving an inside look at the military.......more

Goodreads review by Bob on March 23, 2015

I fell in love with Griffin's series about the Corps and have read all his awesome works.

Griffin starts the series with two linear books containing interesting and engaging characters and the third book where you're expecting more of the exploits of these young warriors. . . and you get a massive jump back in time to December 7th and work forward fr......more
