ISBN: 978-1-60344-424-8

A member of the famed Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne Division, author Donald Rich went ashore on D-Day at Utah Beach, was wounded in the bloody conflict at Carentan, landed in a flimsy glider on the battlefields of Holland, and survived the grim siege during the Battle of the Bulge. This first-person narrative spans nearly three years from the time a young Iowa boy reported for duty in 1943 until his return home as a toughened bazooka gunner and verteran of five campaigns.
