Reseña del editor
Gold Medal Winner from the Military Writer's Association of America! Noncommissioned officers stand as the backbone of the United States Marine Corps. The Corps is among the most lasting institutions in America, though few understand what makes it so strong and how that understanding can be applied effectively in today’s world. In this insightful and thoroughly researched book, Julia Dye explores the cadre of noncommissioned officers that make up the Marine Corps’ system of small-unit leadership. To help us better understand what makes these extraordinary men and women such effective leaders, Dye examines the fourteen leadership traits embraced by every NCO. These qualities— including judgment, enthusiasm, determination, bearing, and unselfishness—are exemplified by men like Terry Anderson, the former Marine sergeant who spent nearly seven years as a hostage in Beirut, John Basilone, the hero of the Pacific, and many others. To assemble this extraordinary chronicle, Julia Dye interviewed Anderson and dozens of other Marines, mining a rich trove of historical and modern NCO heroes that comprise the Marine Corps’ astonishing legacy, from its founding in 1775 to the present day. “Backbone is essential reading for everyone in a position of leadership–and all who aspire to lead–no matter their walk of life. Julia Dye nails it–and her exemplars are the finest leaders on the planet–people who know the meaning of ‘Semper Fidelis.’” —Oliver North, LtCol, USMC (Ret.), Host of War Stories on FOX News Channel
