"I was travelling through the Dallas airport and saw a retired military man doing a book signing. I am sure I had just finished some testosterone filled spy novel and was looking for something to get me home. Also, I was not about to walk away from a man that reminded me of my grandpa Crumet, and how he risked his life in the greatest war of all time. I am a proud owner of a signed copy of this book. War accounts are generally written by the men who commanded the troops. Rarely do you read an articulate account written by the foot soldier in the middle of the action. If you want to read about military strategy devoid of feelings, you better look somewhere else. Although I liked this book, I found that the day to day life of training and war on the soldiers made the book seem to drag on. Ironically, Mr. Megellas truely told the story of the details required to fight and win the war, without embellishing to make his story a different read."
"Father's Day gift from Matt and Keri that was signed by the author. Well written, the author does not omit the grisly details of hand to hand combat."
