   Description
The verified, uncensored diary of an American WWII infantryman, from enlistment in 1943 through his baptism of fire in the rugged Vosges Mountains of France in late 1944. This book is purely the candid, point-blank thoughts of an intelligent 18-year old infantry scout, and includes honest accounts and reflections on leadership, training, and comradeship, good and bad, inspirational and disappointing. Kept in violation of US Army policies which forbade the maintenance of personal journals in combat, what was once an operational security violation is now a brilliant vehicle for understanding the experiences of an American infantryman...the last time America defeated a world-class foe! 6" x 9" soft cover format; 255 pp.; seven highly-detailed, original maps and diagrams; 40 photos and illustrations; index.
