Gailey (history, San Jose State U.) provides a chronology of the history of this evolving branch of the US armed forces: from its establishment in 1775 as the Continental Marines, to its 1994 mission in Haiti. The dictionary covers the "Abrams (M1 and M1A1) tank" to "Zeilin, Jacob"-- the marines' seventh commandant who escorted Commodore Perry on his 1853 Asian visits. The bibliography affords general works, official, and nonofficial publications by era. Includes insider acronyms and maps. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
