The USS Maine was a false flag attack staged by some faction within the government to give us a reason to declare war.

My Dad, a USMC mustang officer who stood 3 tours in VN had the greatest respect and loyalty for General Puller. Before going thru OCS he was a Drill Sergeant at Camp Pendleton in the early 50's. As a young boy of 4 and 5 I can vividly remember him out on the Grinder with his boots calling cadence with very colorful language about Chesty Puller, lol. God bless them both.
I think Dan Daily was the most decorated Marine . 2 MOHs .

During the battle the Chinese soldiers didn't have many rifles but plenty of grenades. They would throw them at the soldiers and the soldiers would catch them and throw them back.

I'm not a Marine, but I'm right proud of Gen. Puller. And I absolutely believe that *at least* one of his Navy Crosses ought to've been the Medal of Honor.

We all understand that serving in our military and especially serving in WWII is heroic and all veterans SHOULD have light shined upon them...this movie trailer is disingenuous because it leads you to believe these women fought heroically in combat when in fact they worked in the postal service of the United States Army. The Army was having difficulties getting Mail to our troops. Moral was at an all-time low and to remedy the problem the Army formed the 6888th Postal Battalion. They did break many records sorting mail and did play a pivotal role in boosting moral back to our men in the field. So before you watch this movie, don't get your hopes up thinking we sent women into combat and this story is just now being told. #TheMoreYouKnow #ThankYouForYourService

You bring great insult upon the toughest, bad ass Marine that has ever dawned an Eagle, Globe, and Anchor. DAN DALY......... 2 CMH's denied a rightful third. Chesty might have had more in number, but shy of the highest award 2 times. General Smedly, Darlington Butler deserves a nod! Please!

When I look back at history I regard FDR as a socialist/enemy of The United States. His taking The US off the gold standard and the ensuing gold confiscations are among the top worst things in this country's history that have ever happen. This action solidified the federal reserves dominance over our country. Maybe just maybe had Butler gone a long with this plot we'd be living in a much better country today. Maybe the the great depression wouldn't have been so great. Maybe The US could have stayed out of WW2. Butler's support of the bonus army may have gotten FDR elected also. FDR was a progressive and progressives have been ruining this country since the early 1900s. The federal reserves act, the income tax, the gold standard and gold confiscations, the border, the economy, the erosion of moral standards. All progressive ideology.
