The Commandant's Page General James L. Jones General Jones was born in Kansas City, Missouri. I moved to France in 1947 with my family when I was four years old and I did not return to the United States to live until 1962 . He was commissioned at 2ndLt in January, 1967. He became the 32nd Commandant of the Marine Corps on 1 July 1999. No such luck.
Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they've made a difference.
The Marines don't have that problem. If I were King, I'd close Army entry training and send all future Infantry grunts to the Marines. The Corps still produces trained and disciplined soldiers who know how to make it on a killing field. Some links to DUKWs and Pohang-dong by the sea .
