I just pruchased this Landing Force Manual United States Navy 1918. It is in great shape and is named to a C. Clinton CarpenterAugust 26, 1918. It is pretty interesting and even has pictures which I will share some here with you all. Another interesting thing is that in the chapter for First Aid, there is a 5 leaf clover in it. Not sure if it brought him luck or not. Purchased it for $19.00.

...welp, I can see it now, we'll be storming a beach..... bad thing is, our creek doesn't have sufficient flow to launch a boat!  In retospect, that might be a plus,lol....

Maybe we should move the outhouse closer to the rim of the creek and then there would be enough to launch a boat.

Well, someone has got to bring along the Maxim gun, as you cannot expect Marines to operate equipment that sophisticated.

True.  One of the best scenes in The Wind and the Lion!  (If any of you haven't seen that movie, you really NEED to!)
