Dad's War With The United States Marines by Peter H. Green is an intimate biographical account of the life of journalist Ben Green and his illusive enlistment into the United States Army. As a trusting citizen, Green signed himself into the Marine Corps as a combat intelligence officer without understanding the intent of the military, which was aimed at exploiting the aspirations of the 35 year-old man. The reader will follow Peter's family through their struggle of an unsure outcome of marginal living conditions and of situational manipulations in Dad's War With The United States Marines. Sure to inspire the reader to thoughtful reflection given current demands on the American military arising from the "war on terrorism", Dad's War With The United States Marines is very highly recommended to all general readers and a welcome addition to the growing library of military memoirs and biographies.
