註釋
"At long last the story of the 36th "Texas" division from the landing in Southern France on 15August 1944 to the end of the war on 8 May 1945 is told. Here, in a remarkably personalized version of the war, is the story of "Red" Morgan landing again on a hostile beach, of "Parks" Bowden being wounded but returning in time to be the hero of "Bowden's woods" several months later. Here, too, are the stories of eight valiant men from all walks of life and all parts of the United States -- eight who were awarded their nation's highest medal -- the Medal of Honor. Here are the stories of unsung heroes, who "just did my job" and some of them lived to come home. After three years of research and intensive interviews, a veteran of the 36th division tells the story of his buddies and his friends."--Jacket flap.
