America's most decorated hero of World War II <p>
Audie Murphy recounts his personal experiences in the foxholes and dugouts of World war II. It is a first hand story of the men who carried the guns, the little men who had only their friends and their weapons between them and the enemy. Told in simple and vital language, it is a human record that the novelists, reporters, and generals haven't been able to touch.<p>
Audie's answer to the question "Why did you write the book--The main reason that I wanted the book to be written was to remind a forgetful public of a lot of boys who never made it home. The present tense was chosen for the book because in a combat man's life there is little left but the present tense. It was my purpose to tell a story as simple and honestly as I could, avoiding heroics because I do not belive in heroics. The great man of the war to me was the little fellow who did what was asked of him and paid whatever price that action cost.<p>
One of the best books ever and signed twice with the dust jacket,
a great addition to anyone's library.
