Description

The Author, born in '46, writes about her dad, a Jewish veteran of WW II and about his friends and contemporaries from different backgrounds. These young men faced challenges and had fascinating experierences, confronting the war, other GI's from different American backgrounds-- small towns, anti-semites, southerners, etc. They also faced the Germans and the Japanese and many served with distinction and great honor to their country. For anyone interested in the period and especially for those with fathers who served in WW II, it's a great read. Those stories your dad told you about his experiences-- true... and more.
