a production by Chris Flannery of the Claremont Institute EPISODE 122 - NOVEMBER 9, 2021 ONE MORE FOR CHESTY “Chesty” Puller was a Marine’s Marine.

Chesty Puller never quit!” His combat service record is astonishing: he is the most decorated Marine in history. Chesty insisted that he did not love fighting.

He embodied something more.
