This is a collection of picturesque and observant stories about the hard-fighting Fifth Marine Regiment in World War I. These stories describe Marines in combat in France from Belleau Wood to the march to the Rhine.
During his 27 years as a Marine officer, John W. Thomason enjoyed the distinction of being one of America’s foremost illustrators and one of the most vivid writers of his time. By virtue of his singular combination of talents, Thomason portrayed daily life at the front with acute observation, ironic wit and sympathy.
