A new assignment or mission for any Marine has traditionally
been a source of challenge. Since 1776, such opportunities have
provided a medium for greater service to both his country and his corps.
Therefore, naturally and almost inevitably, this was the mental response
of our group of four Marine officers when the first term project for
the Research Seminar in Comptrollership was assigned. Military
breeding and esprit dictated that our efforts, regardless of ultimate
value, must be directed toward an objective that might prove beneficial,
in some small measure, to our corps instead of merely attempting
mechanically to satisfy an imposed academic requirement.
