United States Marine Corps and Book
1. Identify the author’s mission (task and purpose) in writing this book. Also, why did you choose this book?

THE AUTHOR INTENDED TO PASS ONE SINGLE POINT, INITIATIVE AND DEDICATION ARE THE FOUNDATION OF SUCCESS IN EVERY MAN AND WOMAN
IT IS THESE INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL SUCCEED WHERE ALL OTHERS FAIL.I CHOSE THIS BOOK TO GAIN A NEW OUTLOOK ON MY OWN WORK ETHIC AND TO REDEFINE MY OWN MOTIVATION IN THE MARINES CORPS

2. What part of the book was the most effective in accomplishing the author’s missions? What part of the book was the least effective?

THE BOOK IS SPLIT IN TWO HALVES. THE FIRST PART IS ESSENTIALLY THE BACKGROUND STORY OF GARCIA AND HIS TRAVELS. I BELIEVED THIS PART TO BE LEAST EFFECTIVE BECAUSE IT DID NOT HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF THE AUTHOR’S OPINION OR EMOTION INVOLVED.THE SECOND HALF IS THE AUTHOR'S DEFINITION OF THE TRUE HARD WORKING MAN, AN INDIVIDUAL TRULY WORTH HIS SALT. IT FULLY ENCOMPASSES THE MAIN POINT OF THE STORY 3. What does the author assume to be true in order to accomplish his mission? Does the author validate these assumptions in the book?

THE AUTHOR ASSUMES THE FOLLOWING, THE MAN WHO CAN CARRY A MESSAGE TO GARCIA POSSESS CERTAIN QUALITIES. HE WORKS EVEN WHEN THE BOSS IS AWAY. HE DOES NOT QUESTION SIMPLE TASKS, RATHER COMPLETES THEM BRISKLY AND FULLY. THE WORLD STRIVES AND WANTS MORE MEN LIKE THIS, WITH DEDICATION UNWAVERING AND LOYALTY UNMATCHED.

4. The part of the book that is most relevant to what I/we do is:

MANY TIMES IN OUR MARINE CORPS CAREER WE WILL BE ENTRUSTED TO COMPLETE A MISSION OR ASSIGNMENT WITHOUT THE HELP OR SUPERVISION OF OTHER MARINES. IT IS TIMES LIKE THIS WHERE WE MUST STAND UP AND BECOME THE MARINE WHO HAS THESE QUALITIES, AND POSSESS THE ABILITY TO USE THEM TO EXECUTE THE MISSION SUCCESSFULLY.

5. Identify the author’s specific and implied conclusions.

THE SPECIFIC CONCLUSION IS SIMPLE, THIS WORLD IS IN NEED OF HARD WORKING MEN WHO WILL PUT FORTH EXTRA EFFORT IN THE COMPLETEION
