To begin Marine Corps Week, I outline the life and career of the legendary General James Mattis of the United States Marine Corps. 
Born and raised in Washington state, James Mattis was built for military service. As a child he was an avid reader, eager to learn all he could about everything. At college he leveraged his love for life-long learning with natural leadership skills to excel not only in Navy ROTC but the military in general. Known as a compassionate, personable, and caring leader Mattis was highly revered by the Marines under his command. Yet, he was also a skilled military tactician and cunning strategist. 
Warrior Monk, CHAOS, Mad dog, and Saint Mattis of Quantico are just a few nicknames that have been given to General Mattis throughout his lengthy career of military service. But who is the man who reportedly killed 22 insurgents with a grenade BEFORE it exploded?  This and so much more will be answered in this episode! Thanks for listening!
