Love the podcast. So much detail on the history. Was wondering if you could cover one thing that is Marine Corps history happening now. On August 15, 2025 VMFA-232 is celebrating 100 years. They are the oldest and most decorated squadron in the Marine Corps. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

I found this late (10/20/24) but this is my favorite pod cast. I listen every night now. I hope you continue to make episodes. It looks like episodes stop in Jan of 2024. Great pod cast. Very informative and well researched. Thank you for digging so deep and share our history.
I’ve never been one to write reviews on much of anything, but I felt compelled to do so with this podcast.
I ship to MCRD in a few months at the age of 22.
I was worried about being a little bit older than other recruits, and how that would affect my time at boot.
This show has not only scratched my itch for history, but reminded me that the marine corps comes in various shapes, sizes, and ages.
Can’t go on enough about how much I truly appreciate this podcast.
