Summary

"This book will have an appeal to all of those Marine aviators, aircrew and aviation ground personnel who served in Quantico from 1918 to the present day. The many photographs of Quantico and the early Marine Corps aircraft, combine to present a well balanced and excellent historical record of a segment of our Marine aviation history, which, until now, has not been published in this detail and with this many facts, in one volume."--Page v.
