The North China Marine
Part 1
More and more often, in late 1940 and then 1941, as men from Peking and Tientsin finished their tour of duty in China they were not replaced. As the numbers of Marines in north China dwindled the separate Peking Marine and Tientsin Marine bulletins were discontinued and one publication was created in their place. This was the North China Marine. It was in existence from June through December 1941.
