Summary: this book is great and every marine needs to read it
Review: I read this book in boot camp at the same island that Governor Miller went to. The book was great. The Corps values we learned at boot camp are right on and this great book expains a lot of what we go through.I'm glad that Governor Miller wrote this book and think every Marine needs to read it. So Governor Miller, if you read this, thank you for a great book and SEMPER FI DEVIL DOG. p.s. Some day it would be my pleasure to meet you and shake your hand to thank you for what you have done for me and the United States Marine Corps. DANIEL G STOY LCPL USMC

Summary: Too much emphasis on the Marine Corps system.
Review: I really enjoyed reading the book and feel that it would be a better society if everyone spent 2 years in the military. Governor Miller has written a very readable account of his use of the Marine value system. My only argument is that I learned similar values in the US Army, and to infer that the Marine Corps is the only teacher of these values is misleading. What I learned in the Army was learned without be treated like an animal by some willful DI.

Summary: A Quick Read of Some Really Important Stuff
Review: I sat down and read Zell's "Corps Values" in less than 2 hours. It spoke volumns to me about how people's lives can be changed for the better when they have a solid moral and ethical model for proven success to follow. I put in my tour of duty with the US Army but I have always had the highest respect for the US Marine Corps and the men that it produces. Every young man and woman should be challenged to read this little book and begin to practice the keys to molding character and always doing the next right thing. "Corps Values" is a valuable adjunct to solid values taught by your church or synagogue-its a wonderful applications tool to guide us all.

Summary: Vain, PR opp for Zell to brag about himself
Review: I sort of new that y'all wouldn't post my flame on Zell's "Corp Value". However, you should read Atlanta Creative Loafing's Online story regarding a case that Zell covered up. http://webcln.com/archives/atlanta/newstand/101098/anews.htm Zell covered for Judge Flake and former Braves Pitcher, former Sheriff Pat Jarvis. Even though Jarvis was just sentenced to 15 months in federal prison that's just the tip of the iceberg. Wrightson v. Shingler et al in on the U.S. Supreme Court docket. Soon everyone will know that this book is a farce and instead of Zell in his Marine uniform on the cover of "Corp Values", Zell will sport a little orange jump suit, 2 sizes too small on the cover of "Hard Corp"!

Summary: Corps Values
Review: I stumbled across this book just as my son entered Marine boot camp. It is what "got me" through his Marine boot camp experience. Every word written by Zell Miller was an inspiration as to why my son joined the Marines (which I did not previously fully understand) and what being a United States Marine means. Beyond Honor, Courage, & Commitment, Zell Miller explains, through his experience at Marine boot camp, how the young recruit gains these humankind values: Neatness, Punctuality, Brotherhood, Persistence, Respect, Shame, Responsibility, Achievement, Courage, Discipline, Pride, and Loyalty. A chapter is devoted to each. In letters to my son, I sent exerpts from the book which helped him through the toughest times and gave him extra encouragement to keep believing in himself and this greatest challenge of his life. This book is definitely a "must read" for family members of Marine recruits, and makes a wonderful keepsake gift. The values it describes is good reading for all family members, young and old, and to embrace and incorporate the Marine Corps values into one's own life can only make our world a better place to live. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this book.

Summary: Buy it; buy 10; and give them to your employees and friends!
Review: If you want to know about real American values this book must be read. Gov Miller's staight talk about the values he learned as a Marine are the ingredient for America's success. Today young Marines are taught the Corps values of "Honor, Courage and Commitment." The book took me back to my days as a drill instructor and I hope I made the same impression on my young Marines to be and Gov Miller's DI did. I truly enjoyed it and pick it up often to what Dr. Covey calls "to sharpen my saw." Semper Fidelis, Anthony Hudson Capt USMC (Ret.)

Summary: Values for Life Presented
Review: The author describes how his drifting youthful ways were transfered into an ordered Marine life to which he still subscribes in his political life. This book describes these key Marine values.
Marine values such as courage and loyalty are valued commodities in politics. Marine values such as respect and punctuality have been verified by psychological studies as useful. Some Marine values, such as neatness, are not necessarily qualities that Management studies affirm as being important. Still, overall, this is a book many will find uplifting and of good guidance.
