Offered by Over The Blue Horizon is an author-inscribed/signed copy of “GUNNY: A STORY ABOUT A MARINE GUNNERY SERGEANT” by P. E. Brandon.  Scroll down for pictures!

Humorously subtitled  as “Mostly a True Story”, this book presents the story of Percy Eugene “Gunny” Brandon, who joined the USMC in early 1953 and served until 1969 when he was temporarily retired because of wounds. He eventually (fully) retired in 1973.  In the Vietnam war, he served with the Second Battalion , Fourth Marines, patrolling  the DMZ and faced off against the North Vietnamese 320th Division, a hardcore unit of tough, combat-tested troops.  As stated earlier, the book is inscribed, signed, and dated 1997 on the first inside page.  

This 254-page, 6 x 9 inch softcover was privately published in 1995 and is a stated First Printing.  Condition is good – the cover and its edges show very minor wear but overall, it is tight, bright and clean.
