A true evaluation of Chesty Puller. So sad that we don't have generals today with combat experience equal to or close to that of Chesty Puller. I would compare him to General George Patton who did not lack for courage, swiftness in decision making and tenacity. I served with him in Korea when he was in command of the 1st Marine Div. and again with the 2nd Marine Div. You don't have to be a Marine to enjoy this read or to appreciate who Chesty Puller was.
This book, well written tells the true story of a great American hero who really never got the credit he was due. The mere fact that he felt politics in the military was a determent of the leadership of the senior staff indicates his dedication to performance in the field. Lessons he learned as a combat officer have been taught in some of the most prestigious war colleges in the U. S. Most men that served under him would follow him into battle no matter what the circumstances. He became an advocate of "preparedness" which played an important role in the ability of the Marine Corps to quickly mobilize following the beginning of WW2 at least a year ahead of the other services. He recognized that an efficient Marine Corps needed to be run at the platoon, squad and fire team level by its junior officers and non-commissioned officers. This book should be mandatory reading for all new officers and non-commissioned officers in the Corps!
“…it is a matter of life or death for officers and noncommissioned officers to have respect from the men—and something more. Adulation. They must obey orders to the letter, without question, though they die for it. It is the only way to handle men in combat. If you lose control, you lose lives. It is so simple as that.†(Kindle Locations 594-596)Lewis Burwell “Chesty†Puller was a United States Marine Corps lieutenant general. An old-fashioned man’s man; one you could believe might have had the words: valor, honor, courage, heroism, indelibly etched into the fabric of his character.An exemplary warrior, an exemplary leader, and a most exemplary Marine. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, as a private, in 1918; and was retired 37 years later, in 1955—the most decorated Marine in American history—as a three-star general.Recommended to me by a friend who served in the USMC, Burke Davis’s biography: Marine!: The Life of Chesty Puller earns exemplary marks for comprehensive research, and for excellent narration of an incredible life.Recommendation: Highly recommended for all who’d like a glimpse into the mindset of one truly courageous Marine.“Then you could see on the faces of the troops what he meant to them. Every eye rolled after him as he walked on and their expressions said better than billboards that he was their kind of an officer. They would have followed him anywhere.†(Kindle Locations 3058-3060).Open Road Media. Kindle Edition, 400 pages, 7,430 Kindle locations.
I recently commented on another book I read that pleased me to no end. I also mentioned, unlike life back in college where one makes copious notes for that dreaded "mid term," I don't do this with my endless collections of books read, before moving on while catching my breath to read the next in line. I do know what books make favorable impressions, however, and this is yet another. I have always gravitated towards military history, particularly where it concerns Asia. Though my background is Air Force, everyone knows the name Chesty Puller. The book shows what a warrior this man was during both WWII, and the horrific Korean War, inspiring all those around him to persevere, no matter the apparent odds. I've the deepest respect to my military brothers in The Corps, and they've a right to be proud of "the greatest Marine there ever was" in the legendary Chesty Puller. The author crafted an excellent story of Chesty.
I think this book should remind all Americans regardless of current political party affiliation of the principles that made America the greatest country she became. It is by the selfless sacrifice and service of military leaders like Chesty Puller.One wonders what Chesty would think of America today? I think the book answers that question. He predicted what weak leadership would cause and I think it's not necessarily military leadership but the weak political leadership of last decades, it starts at the top.I liked Chesty's quote on leadership, "I got most of the glory, but all the blame." Most of the leaders we've had in my lifetime seem to think, " take all the glory, and none of the blame. "I would love to hear Chesty's view of things today, that would probably be another book in itself.Amazing war hero but more importantly an amazing man.
Very good book. My Dad was a US Marine in the Pacific in WWII. He passed away some time ago. But I remember some stories that he always told his friends and me about how great Chesty Puller was was to the enlisted. I'm sure they weren't all true, but he sure had a great respect for "Old Chesty" as he called him. The other "Brass" he never cared for...
I love reading about the great wars but reading about Chesty Puller transcends those wars into other wars into light as well. Reading about his life is inspiring to say the least of an unequaled drive and determination unlike any other in military history. I would recommend this book to nearly anyone who might be interested in reading about someone truly powerful in his generation. Simply reading the epilogue alone gave me great joy in his no nonsense approach to anything he set his sights on. He would be a great role model to any kid growing up looking for direction in their lives.
