Marine Pioneers: The Unsung Heroes of World War II is a personal
history of a young Marine during World War II. This book tells a
powerful story that has never been told before and documents a rare
look into a "Pioneer Unit", integrated with an infantry unit in the
First Marine Division. Kerry Lane tells the riveting true story of
his experiences as a Sergeant while serving with a Marine Pioneer
Battalion during the Battle of Guadalcanal and the swamp battle
known as "Suicide Creek" in the jungles of Cape Gloucester, New
Britain. Assisted by the Marine Historical Center and other
Pioneers, Kerry Lane has gathered numerous battlefield stories,
anecdotes, and experiences told by those who were there and who
lived them. With his own battlefield experiences providing an
understanding of men in war, he has crafted an interesting book
that tells those stories of marine pioneers in battle. Weaving
these stories and vignettes together into the framework of the
overall battle, this book honors the many marine pioneers, their
companies and battalion, that contributed greatly to the victory
that changed the course of the Pacific war.
