General Lejeune used his skills as an expert administrator, diplomat and gentle persuader to keep the Corp funded while protecting the Marines from political plans for absorption into the Navy or Army. During his service, Lejeune presided over what is known as the first enlightenment of the Marine Corps. Lejeune directed intelligence gathering operations in the Pacific in the early 1920s, and drove changes in the organization, training, education, and equipping of Marines - thus transforming them from 19th century colonial naval infantry into a combined arms amphibious force needed to prevail in World War Two. His sense of honor, exemplary good character, and love of country and the corps contributed to the modernization of a vital branch of the US Armed Forces. For many General John Archer Lejeune is the greatest Marine of all Time! Thanks to Patrick Brent, journalist, author and former Infantry Marine, for his incredible support during this documentary. Although we were six time zones apart, Patrick reviewed all script and video revisions, making important corrections and adding important information to the film. His passion for keeping respect for the General's name was contagious. Thanks to Bill Speer, military historian, for his comments and corrections during the script and editing process. During our years working together, he has always kept my stories honest and true. His eye for detail is incredible and was important for this film.
