The Pacific: Chesty Puller full speech

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaWkXS3xO5M

From the comments below the video:

“Chesty was much beloved and respected by Marines because he did the one thing that most commanders don’t do. He treated them like men.”

“One of my best friends, Hop Birdsong, fought with Chesty in the 1st Marines Division at Guadalcanal. He said he was one of the first Marines to hit the beach and was proud to talk about it. Thank you.”

“Where we’ll meet them and conquer them? Where we’ll meet them and be victorious? Where we’ll meet them and overcome? Nope. “Where we’ll meet them and kill them all.” Go, Chesty!”

“The greatest generation to ever walk this earth Semper FI”
