From the calm of a Sunday morning in Hawaii to the sands of the South Pacific, this chapter marks the turning of the tide. It begins with the shock of Pearl Harbor and the desperate stands at Wake, Guam, and Corregidor, small garrisons that fought to the last shot.

It follows the first lonely outpost in Iceland, where Marines waited through wind and ice while the world slipped into war, then turns to the islands of the Solomons, where the Corps learned to fight, bleed, and win in the jungles of the Pacific. Out of fire, hunger, and mud, a new kind of Marine emerged: amphibious, relentless, and ready for the long road to victory.
