Nice. I don't remember ever having seen Gen. Butler on video before.

The Naval History and Heritage Command has a rather long entry on the ship we see in the beginning, AP-5 Chaumont, later Samaritan. Thank you for uploading the film, interesting stuff!

Gen.Smedley Butler?God bless the USMC.

No disrespect to the General, Sir, but I was hoping for a Corporal Bobby Shaftoe reference here, starts with poetry: "Two tires fly, two wail..." I can't remember the rest you'll have to look it up, but my respect to the USMC.
