Book Description
Put down your sissy drink with its umbrella, get off your backside, and square yourself away. Get fit, get a job, and get yourself some self-respect. America’s favorite, most in-your-face sarge is going to show you how to get squared away like a Marine. R. Lee “Gunny” Ermey, of The History Channel’s Mail Call, takes time out from telling viewers all about military technology, to tell readers all about life. Men today are facing a crisis of emasculation. Gunny is here to tell you how to fight back and save your dignity: by taking control of your own damn life. First, he teaches you how to get fit, stay fit, and defend yourself. Then, he teaches you how to conduct yourself the way real men do: with assertiveness but also with wisdom and courtesy. Finally, Gunny motivates you to use your new fitness and new attitude to live life like a man of honor: to work hard, reach for high goals, and set an example with your life. Gunny’s Rules is the ultimate guide for anyone who wants to live life like one of the toughest of the tough—like a Marine.

Pages : 98
Book Description
Many of us have questions about God, or we never truly come to know about God, his Son, and the Holy Spirit. We may even doubt that God works in our lives at all, especially when times are difficult and there is no hope in sight. So where can we find answers? How do we truly come to know God, his Son, and the Holy Spirit? In God and the Gunny, author and retired US Marine Tom Moriarty shows us how he learned about God, Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit through a series of miraculous, often life-saving interventions in his lifeand how these interventions have made him a man after Gods own heart. Using the story of King David as an example for righteous living, Tom speaks to both his failures and his accomplishments, always trusting in God to come through when things got really hard. Life can be just as full of suffering, pain, and horrors as it can be full of happiness, success, and beautybut in every moment good or bad, God is there to protect us, bless us, and guide us forward. He is always walking the path with us, so it is up to us to let him show us the way and have faith in his helping hand.

Allegiance to God and Corps
Author: Hafiz Naim Ali Camp
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1426958226
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Allegiance to God and Corps is a memoir that explores the life experiences of Hafiz Naim Ali Camp, a US Marine who converted to Islam when he was a staff sergeant in 1994. He shares sixteen years of experiences, both positive and negative, as he took advantage of the opportunity to meet diverse groups of people and to share stories about their families and cultures. Of all the places he visited, the two that had the biggest impact on him were Palestine and Bosnia, because of the atrocities the people experienced under the ruling forces that governed each of them. He recalls firsthand stories from two Bosnian brothers who fought in the Bosnian War as teenagers and who went on to become marines. Camp also talks about his relationships and experiences with six military Muslim chaplains-four in the navy, one in the air force, and one in the army. All of these stories provide a vivid picture of what it's like to be a Muslim in the US military, as well as the challenges it brings each day. Finally, he writes about the tragic events of 9/11, Fort Hood, and the controversial Ground Zero Masjid incidents that have had a devastating impact on the Muslim communities world-wide.

Sharkman Six
Author: Owen West
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 9780743217477
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
When Lieutenant Gavin Kelly's recon platoon swims ashore a Mogadishu beach under the glare of hundreds of news camera lights, it is an appropriately surreal beginning to Operation Restore Hope. This modern war is vastly different from the battles Kelly's father and grandfather fought and from the young lieutenant's own experience during Operation Desert Storm. Minutes after the Marines' celebrated landing, one of Kelly's men kills an armed Somali bodyguard. The circumstances of the killing are unclear and Kelly finds himself in the center of a maelstrom. He must act quickly to deflect a vociferous outcry from members of the international press corps, censure by his Marine superiors, and the possibility of losing the loyalty of his men -- particularly two enlisted leaders in the platoon who have vouched for the necessity of the kill. Thus begins Sharkman Six, a stinging morality tale in which Kelly is torn between his men, his confusing mission, and the international rules of engagement he has sworn to uphold. As his platoon descends into the lawless, violent underbelly of Somalia, Lieutenant Kelly must determine his own values -- and allegiances -- in a country where murders are commonplace and constant. With heart-pounding, intricate military detail, rapier wit, and stunning verisimilitude, Sharkman Six speaks to the violent urges lurking in us all and the lengths to which we will go to control them. In Gavin Kelly, West has created an authentic, sympathetic, and wholly compromised young officer of war who will put you in mind of the best of military heroes and antiheroes.
