O knihe
A riveting first-person account of a brave
young man caught up in a cataclysmic World War.
This is the story of Captain William C. Frodsham, Jr., who -
shortly after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor - enlisted
in the U.S. Army Infantry, where he excelled in basic
training, became a junior officer, and eventually led a
combat boat team ashore on Omaha Beach.
Six days
later, in French hedgerow country and under withering German
fire, Frodsham was wounded and taken prisoner. He spent the
next year as a German POW, where he suffered great
deprivation before finally being liberated by advancing
Russian forces.
His training, his courage, his
capture. The reader is taken for a first-person tour of the
times at home and then tunneled into a vastly different
world on the battlefield and in a German prisoner-of-war
camp.
A truly remarkable story.
