Last Minute Sales & Specials

For longer than the United States has been an independent nation, there has been a Marine Corps. Tested in battle from the Revolutionary War to the bloody back alleys of Iraq, Marines consider themselves the very best America has to offer. Embodying fierce patriotism, extraordinary courage and innovative weapons and tactics, they have a reputation for better of for worse, as the "go to" force when trouble breaks out. "The Marines" will be a one-hour documentary destined to become PBS's definitive account of the Corps. With the support of the new to-be-established Marine Corps museum, this film will have unprecedented access to the vast wealth of information and stunning material in this permanent collection. This is a unique opportunity to highlight major events from the USMC's inception to the present day - weaving key moments into a legendary tale worthy of a military force so rich in history and traditions. Our timing couldn't be better to do this story justice.
