Historical
It was the Greatest Generation’s greatest moment: when
heroes at home and abroad united in common purpose as
soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines, under the
leadership of generals like Patton, Eisenhower, Marshall,
and Bradley, rescued Europe from the tyranny and genocide
of Adolf Hitler. In War Stories III: The Heroes Who Defeated Hitler, Marine
combat veteran Lt. Colonel Oliver North gives you a chance
to revisit the front lines with infantrymen slugging their
way up the boot of Italy, bomber pilots threading the shell
bursts over Germany, and sailors of the U.S. Navy and
Merchant Marine dueling German U-Boats in the icy Atlantic.
The whole panoramic spectacle of the war in Europe is here,
from the perspectives of American, British, Russian,
French, and even German individuals who saw history unfold
before their eyes. Using dramatic first-person testimony, North reveals: * The reality of combat: how it felt to live through the
Battle of Britain as a citizen and a pilot, on the ground
and in the air * The stories of Yanks in the RAF: how Americans fought
Hitler before Pearl Harbor * America’s first taste of battle in North Africa against
the Germans--and the French * How farm boys and field workers climbed the cliffs of
Normandy and brought down the army of the Blitzkrieg * A date with destiny: men and women who joined up together
to fight for liberty * The saga of war on the home front: how women faced
enormous challenges in America, Russia, and Britain and
helped win the war * Amazing stories of resolve on the battlefield: from Anzio
to the Bulge to Berlin. Featuring extended interviews with veterans that cover the
war in Europe from beginning to end, War Stories III: The
Heroes Who Defeated Hitler is a testament to the courage
and sacrifice of the World War II generation--a remembrance
of the bravery and honor of these heroes. It belongs in the
hands of every veteran, every student, and every American.
