Abstract	"In this memoir spanning nine decades, Lieutenant Colonel C.F. Jerram (1882-1969) of the Royal Marines recounts his life and military service through both world wars. An essay by the editor, based on other sources, provides a broader perspective on Jerram, whose approach to professional military service is still pertinent today"-- Provided by publisher.
