Notes: "The glories, despairs, excitements, activities and fears of the soldiers who served during second World War have been portrayed in journalists accounts, in fiction, in memoirs, on stage and on film ever since the end of that war in 1945. In these accounts, rarely has more than passing attention been paid to the services of those few whose assignments were off the beaten path, detached from the usual military units although in uniform bearing the normal identities but forbidden when asked by other servicemen "what is it that you do?" These were the teams of Voice Interceptors of Signal Radio Intelligence units assigned to assist the US Army Air Corps . The author, Dr. Arthur Canter, now a retired Clinical Psychologist and Professor emeritus of Psychiatry of the University of Iowa, was a member of such a unit who after 50 years of silence decided to write about his personal experiences and perceptions of Army life."--Cover p.
