Interwar Period E94 The Marines Rebuild: Readiness in the Quiet Years

In this episode, we follow the Marine Corps through one of its most important transitions. After WWI, Marines provided security in far-off places like China and the Caribbean while reinventing what it meant to be a Marine at home. We cover how combat lessons became doctrine, how Marines went from peacekeepers to a modern expeditionary force, and how leaders like Lejeune, Butler, Neville, Fuller, and Holcomb fought for the soul and future of the Corps.
