Compiled from interviews with 52 members of the “Greatest Generation,” By Dammit, We’re Marines! delivers unvarnished narratives from the Pacific Front of World War II. These firsthand accounts transport readers to coral-shredded beaches, fever-ridden jungles and mosquito-infested swamps, capturing the vulnerability and valor of American teenagers thrust into combat.

The collection spans foxhole chats, chaplain reflections, corpsman rescues and aviator sorties—each story raw, candid and free of editorial filter. Veterans recount moments of sheer terror alongside flashes of laughter, exemplifying the resilience and camaraderie that sustained units against a determined adversary.

Beyond personal anecdotes, contributors reveal rarely told chapters of Marine Corps history, from the Special Officer Candidate School training surge to the “Second Pearl Harbor” assault in May 1944. These insights enrich our understanding of strategy, leadership and the human cost of war.
