Chesty Puller On Loyalty Down:
Amid a nationwide public outcry regarding the whole matter of the drownings in particular and Marine Corps training practices in general, LtGen Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller was recalled to active duty to testify at the trial regarding Marine training and tradition.
Mrs. Puller protested to her husband citing previous trouble and controversy in Puller's career. Puller told her, "...The important thing is the Marine Corps.
If we let 'em, they'll tear it to pieces. Headquarters won't speak up. It's my duty to do it."
