Based on the life of a three war Marine and the lives of real men and real battles including the Chosin Reservoir. True combat from Marines who lived that frozen horror and added to the glory of the Corps. The story of honor; bravery and the real sacrifices of the greatest fighters on Earth. Sacrifices that sometimes go deeper than shrapnel or bullets. Sacrifices that take more than courage; sacrifices that can only be given or forgiven through faith in God almighty.

It is not long and it has parts in it that should be absorbed.Mr. Meeker moves rather quickly over his very poor childhood. His intention is probably not to have the readerunderstand that even someone from extreme humble beginnings can achieve almost anything; but that is whatis done here perfectly. He writes in just enough detail his experiences in a tank battalion in the Korean War. Parts of thisbook are not easy to read as they speak of the horrors of war. This is indeed a first hand account of these experiencesfrom someone who was there and still has a very vivid memory of what happened "Shouting All the Way."
