This is another paragraph Book Description: First in the author's five-volume series The Corps, SEMPER FI sets the stage for WW II. It is the '30s, and we meet the old corps, as it existed between WW I and WW II -- on station in Shanghai, at Quantico, in Washington, all nicely contrasted with civilian life stateside. But the calendar is moving relentlessly toward a fatal day in 1941. When it comes, we understand why nothing could ever be the same again -- and what it's going to take to win the awful conflict into which we have been bloodily and unpreparedly thrust.

From Shangai to Wake Island, the Marine Corps was the first line of defence as the war spread to the East. This story centres around the life and loves of Kenneth McCoy, his colleagues and superiors both British and American, as they steeled themselves for battle.
