Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. [10], ii, 255, [3] pages. Illustrations. Inscribed by the author on the title page. The inscription reads 11 Aug 17 Mark, Thank you for your continued support of the MCAT. Semper Fi, Butch. Richard Irving "Butch" Neal (June 20, 1942 June 17, 2022) was a United States Marine Corps four-star general who served as Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps (ACMC) from 1996 to 1998. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps upon graduation in 1965 from Northeastern University. Neal was assigned to the 3rd Marine Division in Republic of Vietnam. He returned to Vietnam in January 1970, where he was assigned as an Infantry Battalion Advisor to the Vietnamese Marine Corps. In 1982, he was selected to attend the National War College in Washington, D.C. In July 1990, Neal was advanced to brigadier general and assigned duty as the Director, Manpower Plans and Policy Division, Manpower and Reserve Affairs Department. He served in this capacity until May 1992. From September 1990 to April 1991, he was assigned temporary duty as the Deputy for Operations at U.S. Central Command for Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm. From June 1992 - August 1992, he served as Commanding General, Joint Task Force for Operations GITMO, a humanitarian relief effort for Haitian migrants at Guantanamo Naval Base, Cuba. Neal was advanced to major general in April 1993, and assigned as the Commanding General of the 2nd Marine Division. Neal was promoted to four-star rank on September 19, 1996. He retired on November 1, 1998. Wars, fought on a grand scale with global consequences, are made up of countless smaller battles and events. For the men who fought, bled and died in them they are not smallthose little pieces of warand the personal aftermath and their effect is beyond measure. One such battle pitted a North Vietnamese Army (NVA) battalion of 700+ men against the men of Company I, Third Battalion, Ninth Marines, Third Marine Division. Of the seven officers in the field at the beginning, only three walked out. I was one of them. I was 24 years old, and this was my first significant combat experience (and surprisingly, what happenedwhat I was called upon to do, was something I never imagined. What came afterward defined me for the rest of my life). The fighting lasted six hours, and toward the end, we were almost out of ammunition. Those few hours changed forever the lives of the survivors, including me, and the next of kin of the men we lost. That battle was the crucial event in my life; an ultimate What Now, Lieutenant? moment that taught me so much that came into play in other such moments in my future. True, they would not be as traumatic as what I experienced as a lieutenant, but they were moments that whether I was a lieutenant, major or general, each forced me to call upon my experience, knowledge, training and common sense to respond appropriately. Seeing that question in the eyes of the men on Hill 70 that day is how I learned a most valuable lesson about leadership over the course of a bloody day in Vietnam, now more than 49 years ago. Everything that happened to me after that day is now seen through that prism. --Butch Neal. From a review posted on-line: There will always be a new challenge ahead. General Neal outlines multiple events during his career in the Marine Corps in which he was confronted by the ubiquitous question "What now, Lieutenant?" While serving as a young lieutenant in Vietnam, General Neal was assigned as a fire support officer in an infantry company. During an ambush, most of the officers were killed and it was up to him to rally the marines and drive back the enemy. You are in a position of leadership for a reason, and your subordinates will look to you in a time of crisis. Take charge and lead them! Later in Vietnam, Neal was serving as an aerial observer. When a helicopter under his command was shot down, he immediately ordered the pilot of his helicopter to land, then he ran under heavy fire to.
