Leatherneck Famous Marine Quotes

"I am inclined to think there is no military body in our country of higher efficiency than the Marine Corps. Of course their problems are simpler than ours. Their esprit de corps is very high; they take great pride in their professionalism. They never let things slack a bit. "

—RAdm C. M. Winslow, before the House Committee on Naval Affairs in 1916
