Amy Rupertus Peacock, a accomplished individual with a diverse skill set that makes her a writer, researcher, run form coach, and trainer. She is a proud graduate of the prestigious University of Georgia Journalism School, where she honed her expertise in advertising and delivering compelling narratives. Amy's passion lies in writing about a wide range of subjects including health, fitness, faith, leadership, healing, grief, ALS, and veterans. However, there is a story that has captivated Amy's attention for years: the extraordinary life of her grandfather, Marine Major General William Henry Rupertus (1889-1945). With a remarkable military career spanning over three decades, Major General Rupertus served in the Marine Corps from 1913 to 1945. His role as the commanding general of the First Marine Division in the Pacific during World War II, coupled with his prior postings in China (both in Peking and Shanghai), unveils an enthralling chapter of history. One of Major General Rupertus' enduring legacies is the authorship of the famed Rifleman's Creed, a testament to his dedication and profound impact on the Marine Corps. Such is his significance that a destroyer, the USS Rupertus, DD 851, was named in his honor after he sadly passed away in March 1945, leaving behind an awe-inspiring life story characterized by resilience and courage. Amy's unwavering commitment is to ensure that the story on Major General Rupertus not only sheds light on her family's proud heritage, but also pays homage to the brave individuals who fought in the Pacific during World War II, and the indomitable spirit of the United States Marine Corps. Through writing the book with her co author Don Brown, an attorney and former United States Navy JAG Officer, she sought to honor the invaluable contributions of these remarkable individuals and preserve their tales of sacrifice and valor for generations to come. Old Breed General is a captivating narrative that transcends time, combining meticulous research with heartfelt storytelling. https://amyrupertuspeacock.com
