Young Devil Dogs Listening to the Lore of the Corps
Poster featuring a photograph of a group of men in suits sitting on benches and looking at a man in a dress uniform, who has his arms crossed. Poster text reads: "Young Devil Dogs Listening to the Lore of the Corps. Paris Island, S.C. — Newly arrived recruits of the United States Marine Corps are being told that a United States Marine must never fail in anything he undertakes. The indoctrination starts before the recruit is issued his uniform, and the young Devil Dog is never allowed to forget, during the course of training, that he belongs to an organization that has the never-say-die spirit. Only one out of ten men is elegible [sic] for enlistment in the United States Marine Corps. You may be that lucky one. You can't know until you try! This Photo Furnished by U. S. Marine Corps Recruiting Station." |
