Customer Reviews

The Few, The Proud, The Marines
"The Marines" is a well-produced piece that gives a great overview of the process of making a Marine, both enlisted and officer level. This video will provide a background for gaining an understanding into the culture of the Marine Corps. Highly recommended.

Sempre Fi
I saw this video on PBS a month ago and loved it. It does a great job of explaining what the Marine Corp is all about. I went through OCS in 1970, so for me it was interesting to see what had changed and what has remained the same. Surprisingly, my wife watched the whole video with me. I thought that she would humor me for 5 or 10 minutes but that was not the case. She loved it and said it made her understand me and my love for the Marines.

Split decision
Good for former and current Marines and their friends and family. It's a bit of a recuiting film which leads to a lose of credibility. Otherwise, it shows a good deal of what we went through in training. There was an outright error in the film about women training. Women began training similiar to men's training by at least 1982 which is longer than 20 years ago.
