5.0 out of 5 stars An Addictive Series Jun 5 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
After reading this, the first book in "The Corps" series, I the purchased the rest three at a time. Since finishing the series, I have now read every book Griffin has published.

Griffin's character development is so thorough that you feel you have gotten to know a real people as the various series develop.

The Corp Series offers a great "behind the scenes" look at WWII in the Pacific Theatre, what it meant to the men that served and stirs the patriotic juices inside of you.

One of many fantastic books from a terrific author.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book kept me reading for hours on end. I could not put it down with all of the action and romance. The action was awesome! There could be no better hero than "Killer" McCoy. He adn his buddies always had interesting dialouge to keep you interested. I gave this book five stars because it a well rounded book.

My husband and some of his buddies who were all in ww ll
are in the process of reading these books and the Brotherhood of War series. " A soap opera ?" I think not.You had to be there to understand. It is the closest thing to experiencing it all over again. A must read. Very detailed.. Very good writing on Griffins part. I bought them all.
