Always a Marine: The Return to Civvy Street

In Amongst the Marines, Steven Preece vividly depicted his excessive, violent lifestyle as an elite Royal Marine Commando. Now, Always a Marine covers the author's struggle to leave that lifestyle behind following his departure from the service. Back on civvy street for the first time in over 7 years, Preece finds it extremely difficult to adapt, and struggles to shake off the belligerent mentality he developed while in the Marines, and succeed in work and family life. Always a Marine is the action-packed, often shocking account of one ex-Marine's 13-year struggle to control the aggression he learned as a serviceman in order to become a respectable citizen.
