Dye explores the cadre of non-commissioned officers that make up the Marine Corps' system of small unit leadership. She examines the 14 traits embraced by every NCO. To assemble this chronicle, the author interviewed dozens of Marines and mined the trove of historical and modern NCO heroes that comprise the Marine Corps' astonishing legacy.
