Wink 2 New books for military history readers

This week I picked up 2 new books
1.The summer of darknes Pusan and Inchon.

It is about the Korean war in the first year and what the Marines did at the Inchon invasion. It covers the fact that the then President and his defense secratary were trying to disband the Marines and what happened after the invasion. So far it is pretty good.


2. Hero of the Pacific The life of John Basilone,i haven't started it yet but it looks good.

Try the last stand of Fox Company. the story of the depleted company of Marines that held the pass for days. I have passed the book on so i forget the writer, but the commendations and the casualties alone will insure the life of the Marine Corps forever. Semper Fi
