Hey, Scuttlebutt listeners. Thank you for joining us and your continued support. This week, we continue our Road to 250 segment, celebrating the Marine Corps’ 250th birthday in 2025. Throughout the rest of the year, we’ll feature stories and history from throughout the 250 years of the Marine Corps. These episodes will be nested within the MCA’s overall Road to 250 Campaign, where you will find featured articles in both the Gazette and Leatherneck highlighting events and battles within specific periods in Marine Corps history. The MCA also has a commemorative Road to 250 coin collection. These commemorative challenge coins can only be found through the MCA. Go to marineshop.net to order individual coins or email [email protected] to order the entire set or learn more.
This month, we walk the Road to 250 with frequent guest and friend of the show, SgtMaj Justin LeHew. SgtMaj LeHew talks to us about how the WWII and Korean War period helped define the Marine Corps. Where we can’t overstate the significance of the Marine Corps’ amphibiosity during the Island Hopping Campaign, we talk about how vision and innovation during the pre-war years, and the employment of Marines during the Korean War, namely the amphibious landings at Inchon, may have done even more to solidify the Marine Corps as the amphibious force in readiness.
The post #201: Road to 250 – WWII Amphibiosity with SgtMaj Justin LeHew first appeared on Marine Corps Association.
