Description

The Collected Stories of The Leatherneck Coffee Club

 

When Leathernecks are together – that’s U.S.Marines to you civilians – it isn’t long before they’re laughing.  Military life has its difficulties, its tedium, and its terror. There is a necessity to see the humor in absurdity, and doing so sustains us.

The stories in these pages are told by Marines of different ages, ranks, and military occupational specialties.  Knitted together, they reveal a history of their times. Though the experiences of the authors differ, they all share the honor of having earned the right to wear the eagle, globe and anchor in defense of the United States.

 

**The Leatherneck Coffee Club was founded, and still meets, in Northern Indiana
