One World War II Soldier's 500-Day Odyssey from the Beaches of Sicily to the Gates of Dachau
From July 10, 1943, the date of the Allied landing in Sicily, to May 8, 1945, when victory in Europe was declared, no regiment saw more action that the 157th "Eager for Duty" Infantry Regiment of the 45th Thunderbird Division. This book draws on dozens of extensive interviews of these men to tell their stories.
