The end of World War I saw Congress authorize 1,020 men for Marine Corps aviation and the establishment of permanent air stations at Quantico, Parris Island and San Diego. "

It was not until 3 May 1925 that the Marine Corps officially appeared in the Navy's Aeronautical Organization when Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, then Chief of the Navy's Bureau of Aeronautics, issued a directive officially authorizing three fighting squadrons.

The turning point for the long-term survival of Marine Air " On 7 December 1941, the day of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Marine Corps air units consisted of 13 flying squadrons and 230 aircraft.

World War II would see the Marine Corps' air arm expand rapidly and extensively. Because of the way the Pacific War unfolded, Marine Aviation was not able to achieve its 1939 mission of supporting the Fleet Marine Force at first. For the first two years of the war, the air arm spent most of its time protecting the fleet and land-based installations from attacks by enemy ships and aircraft.

This began to change after the Battle of Tarawa as the air support for ground troops flown by Navy pilots left much to be desired. After the battle, General Holland Smith recommended, "Marine aviators, thoroughly schooled in the principles of direct air support," should do the job.

During the course of the war, Marine Aviators were credited with shooting down 2,355 Japanese aircraft while losing 573 of their own aircraft in combat, they had 120 aces and earned 11 Medals of Honor. Also during this time, the Secretary of Defense for then President Harry S. Truman, Louis A. Johnson, attempted to eliminate Marine Corps aviation by transferring its air assets to other services, and even proposed to progressively eliminate the Marine Corps altogether in a series of budget cutbacks and decommissioning of forces

It's good for any jungle book fan
Format: Paperback
I like the manga art of the book. Some parts from the source material are taken out (tabaki the jackal isn't in the manga adaptation of the novel)

Excellently done!
Format: Kindle
Welcome to the jungle! This is the first volume of “The Jungle Book.” Mowgli is a man-cub who is raised by a wolf pack in the jungle. Other stories included in this book is Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, Toomai of the elephants and the white seal. The stories were enjoyable to read. The artwork was perfect for the stories of the book. If you are expecting the story to be like the Disney movie — it’s not. There are some scary moments in the story. It’s a fascinating look of what life in the jungle could be like. Reading this manga story has made me want to go and read the original story. I have also become a fan of manga graphic novels . This is the first time that I have read one. This manga is very well done. I recommend it to everyone! Disclaimer: I received an arc of this book from the author/publisher from Netgalley. I wasn’t obligated to write a favorable review or any review at all. The opinions expressed are strictly my own.

Superb Retelling of Classic Tales
Format: Paperback
The Jungle Book, by Rudyard Kipling and Chrystal S. Chan, is an illustrated Manga Classic book retelling seven different stories in a complete illustrated format. Six poems are interspersed among the stories, providing a sing-song character feel while helping to clarify the culture being illustrated. The stories target younger readers who enjoy action and adventure. Since this is a Manga book and is read differently than others types of books, a brief but detailed explanation is provided as well. I found the artwork to be superb, from the human characters to the animals. The detail that accompanied the characters is well drawn and easy to understand. It is obvious the artist has years of art experience, being able to create this type of book with the detail you see. Stories such as The Jungle Book are based on much longer books, and these graphic novels must present the right words (and the right amount) to move the story along to let the reader experience the story to its fullest, and this book certainly did not disappoint. This book was a quick and thoroughly enjoyable read, and hard to put down. With each new story came a set of exciting new characters, adventures and background history of its people. You see a culture that may contrast sharply with the one you’ve grown up with, and it goes far it describing the various castes in this society. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading Manga comics, especially for those who embrace adventure.

I love this series and have read them all
Format: Paperback
I was so thrilled when I saw a new Manga Classics was out! I love this series and have read them all. Jungle Book excited me as 1) I've read the original and 2) these are short stories, something the series has not done before. The art is just as magnificent as on previous volumes and the author notes on adapting the original at the back are as illuminating as ever. This series stay as close to the originals as possible only adding artistic license where necessary to adapting a printed word novel to an illustrated manga format. The Jungle Book succeeds and presents a well-told version of the original seven stories: 4 featuring Mowgli and three others. The Mowgli stories aren't exactly chronological but they flow nicely told together and of the three stand-alone stories Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is my favourite as it is in the original. Be warned though that this (and others in the series) are sourced from the original material, not anything like its Disney counterpart. I don't think the short story format works as well in manga as it does in text so this is not my favourite of all the books (Great Expectations and Scarlet Letter probably are) but this is well done, nevertheless, and will encourage readers to pick up Kipling's classic if they have not already.
