Real Soldiers, Real Stories, and Real Interviews! In today's video we'll be interviewing a few of the Soldiers I have the privilege of working with, asking them about their life in the Military! Some joined to leave their home town, some joined to chase a life of adventure, and others joined because it was their only option!

Propaganda was nothing new at the beginning of World War 1. But the rapid development in mass media and the total war effort by the nations led the way to our modern understanding of mass propaganda, especially in Germany and Britain. Iconic images like that of Uncle Sam or Lord Kitchener are still known today and are part of the collective memory.

U.S. Marine Corps Commercial: Anthem :72 (Public Service Announcement)
Mar 28, 2017
With a legacy of battles won, the Marines have consistently been ready when our Nation was least ready, demonstrating a tradition of fighting and winning, always with a willingness to engage and determination to defeat any enemy. Their victories and achievements, in both war and peace, on and off the battlefield, have created significant moments in history for our Nation.
Anthem illustrates the historic battles Marines have fought and won, including:
• Belleau Wood – After 20 days of intense fighting during the German Spring Offensive of WWI near the Marne River in France, Marines secured victory and—according to legend—earned the nickname “Teufel Hunden” or “devil dogs.”
• Montford Point – The Montford Point Marines achieved victory at home when in 1942 President Roosevelt established a directive to allow African American men to fight for the Marine Corps; on the field they helped to win battles and changed the face of the Marine Corps.
• Iwo Jima – Amidst some of the fiercest and bloodiest fighting of the War in the Pacific of WWII, Marines captured the Japanese island of Iwo Jima during a five-week battle.
• Recruit Training – In successfully completing recruit training, Marines win the ultimate battles over self-doubt.
• Superstorm Sandy – After Superstorm Sandy slammed into the eastern coast of the U.S. in 2012, Marines fought for the communities of New York and New Jersey, bringing aid, organization, and much-needed manpower.Subscribe to see the latest from Marine Corps Recruiting on YouTube: https://us-marines.co/3gjMy5S
