A Brief History of the 10th Marines

003962-A Brief History of the 10th Marines 144 Pages 1981 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT The 10th Marines is one of the oldest and proudest of the regiments of Marines. Its unbroken service spans 67 years. The line from the Marines Hymn, "We have fought in every clime and place where we could take a gun," could well serve as its motto: Mexico, Haiti, Santo Domingo, the Pacific islands and atolls-the regiment has been there. In times of peace and near war, it has served in Iceland, China, Japan, Lebanon, Norway, and Germany, and with the Landing Force Sixth Fleet. As the only artillery regiment in existence at the creation of the Fleet Marine Force, the 10th Marines wrote the doctrine for the employment of artillery with the landing force.

A Brief History of the 11th Marines

003963-A Brief History of the 11th Marines 63 Pages 1968 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT The 11th Marines, now an artillery regiment of the 1st Marine Division, traces its origin back to World War I. On 20 August 1917, Lieutenant Colonel George Van Orden reported to Quantico, Virginia for duty with the Mobile Artillery Force, which was at that time being, reorganized into a brigade of two light artillery regiments, one of which he was to command. On 3 January 1918, with Van Orden as commanding officer, the 11th Regiment was activated at Marine Barracks, Quantico. The units of the 11th included a Headquarters Detachment and three battalions. (1) Most of the original enlisted strength of the 11th consisted of recruits just out of boot camp, but. . some experience was supplied to the regiment when it was decided that all reenlisted men, not already assigned to other organizations at Quantico, should be placed in the 11th . These were mostly men who had been in the Marines in the past, returned to civilian life, and signed on again when the United States went to war. These experienced Marines gave the 11th an "esprit de corps" that it otherwise would not have had and which benefited immeasurably its training performance. The veterans helped the inexperienced recruits, and as a result the 11th was fairly well squared-away at Quantico. THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT

A Brief History of the 6th Marines

003959-A Brief History of the 6th Marines 196 Pages 1987 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT The famous 6th Marine Regiment was 70 years old in mid-summer 1987. This short history attempts to outline some, not all, of the remarkable accomplishments of this unit. The lateness of publishing such an account is due neither to a lack of interest on the part of the Marine Corps Historical Center nor insufficient effort by that organization. In fact, for several years a Washington-based Mobilization Training Unit (MTU) took on the project in an attempt to assemble available information. Unfortunately, the job had to be shunted from one reserve officer of the unit to another as events dictated. This became evident to the author when he attempted to proofread a final draft submitted by the MTU. THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT

A Failure in Strategy-America and the Vietnam War 1965-1968

000956--A Failure in Strategy-America and the Vietnam War 1965-1968 57 Pages 2001 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT The U.S. strategy pursued in Vietnam between 1965-1968 to contain communism above the 17th parallel was flawed. This paper analysis the primary factors in President Johnson's decision to expand U.S. involvement in Vietnam with the introduction of ground forces. Second, this paper provides an analysis of U.S. military strategy and identifies its strategic weaknesses. Lastly, an alternative U.S. grand strategy, in concurrence with Bruce Palmers, The 25-year War: Americas Military Role in Vietnam will be proposed. This strategy, if implemented, would have galvanized the people behind the U.S. strategy in Vietnam. It would have given the military Commanders in Vietnam the flexibility required to execute a military strategy capable of defeating not only the communist forces of North Vietnam but also the pacification of South Vietnam.

A History of Marine Observation Squadron Six

003979-A History of Marine Observation Squadron Six 88 Pages 1982 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT Marine Observation Squadron 6 antecedents reach back to the 1920 activation of Flight B, 3d Air Squadron at Quantico, Virginia. Frequent modifications of the Marine Corps' aviation structure during the formative years caused a succession of unit redesignitions. The term "division" was substituted for "flight" in 1922 in order to coincide with Navy aeronautical terminology, and Flight E, 3d Air Squadron was redesignated Division 1, Fighting Squadron 1. In 1925 another reorganization brought with it unit redesignation to Division 1, Marine Observation Squadron 3, and on 1 July 1927, this designation was changed to Marine Observation Squadron 6 (VO-6M).

A History of the Women Marines, 1946-1977

003980-A History of the Women Marines, 1946-1977 264 Pages 1986 THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT Despite the acknowledged contribution made by the 20,000 women Reservists who served in the Marine Corps during World War II, there was no thought in 1946 of maintaining women on active duty or, for that matter, even in the Reserve forces. This volume recounts the events that brought about the change in thinking on the part of Marines, both men and women, that led to the integration of women into the Corps, to the point where they now constitute eight percent of our strength. The project was the idea of Brigadier General Margaret A. Brewer, who, in 1975, as the last Director of Women Marines, noted that the phasing out of women-only organizations marked the start of a new era for women in the Corps, and the end of an old one. Further, she rightly reasoned that the increased assimilation of women would make the historical trail of women in Marine Corps difficult to follow. THIS DOCUMENT IS FURNISHED ON CDROM FORMAT
