Jarhead! was the official holozine of the Republic Marine Corps. It was first established in 4,801 BBY by Lieutenant Temuera Mortikai as a source of information—and entertainment for the officers and enlistees of the 8th Marine Regiment. The holozine was comprised chiefly of stories and articles that were submitted by soldiers and originally circulated within that regiment, until it was brought to the attention of the commander of the 3rd Marine Division, who approved its distribution throughout her other regiments. It was not until a year later that civilian holojournalist Mirka Sparx wrote about the publication in Coruscant Weekly, an article which captured the attention of the sitting Commandant, who approved the 'zine's circulation within the entire service branch.

  • Jarhead! was the official holozine of the Republic Marine Corps. It was first established in 4,801 BBY by Lieutenant Temuera Mortikai as a source of information—and entertainment for the officers and enlistees of the 8th Marine Regiment. The holozine was comprised chiefly of stories and articles that were submitted by soldiers and originally circulated within that regiment, until it was brought to the attention of the commander of the 3rd Marine Division, who approved its distribution throughout her other regiments. It was not until a year later that civilian holojournalist Mirka Sparx wrote about the publication in Coruscant Weekly, an article which captured the attention of the sitting Commandant, who approved the 'zine's circulation within the entire service branch. Reeka Chorizzo was a frequent contributor to Jarhead!, writing articles on the state of the Corps and often interviewing other combat veterans following the Mandalorian and Jedi Civil Wars. One of the longest-lasting military-generated publications in the Republic, the holozine gained notoriety within the civilian population as well, and remained in circulation well after the Ruusan Reformation that saw the disbanding of the Corps. Eventually, due to the changing tastes of the galaxy, the periodical folded; its final issue, published in 903 BBY, was a double issue dedicated to the four thousand year history of the Republic Marines.
