The Most Daring Raid of World War II
註釋One of the legendary raids in military history—the U.S. Army Rangers’ attack on the German gun battery on Pointe-du-Hoc in Normandy on D-day in 1944—is vividly presented in this action-packed account. This book focuses on the World War II mission to scale the cliffs overlooking Omaha beach and to assault the German coastal artillery at Pointe-du-Hoc. The beginning construction of the site, the Allies’ planning, and the battle are retold in dramatic detail, and are supported by 3D maps, period photographs, color photographs, and interviews with survivors.
