McdanielStark realism on the conditions men endured in life and death. Thank God I did not have to do it. Strips away the "John Wayne" image of war, and shows that belonging to your buddies and the esprit de corps kept you going in a down to earth way. --By R. S. TottenLike many people who saw "Saving Private Ryan" I was interested in finding out more about what happened in WWII. I was born in 1959 and I've seen all of the old war movies. This book brought it all down to a very human level. The men in the trenches tell their own stories and Mr. Koskimaki puts these stories together so that you get a much clearer picture of the day to day actions and heroism that these brave men (and women) survived. I recommend it highly --David Kirk--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
