Lieutenant General James Gavin, commander of the 82nd Airborne Division during WWII, is one of the best-known figures of the war. Beginning as the commander of the 505th Parachute Combat Team that spearheaded the American assault on Sicily in July 1943, Gavin advanced to division command and finally command of US forces in Berlin. He kept a wartime diary that starts in April 1943, as the unit was preparing to go to northern Africa and continues through to his final entry on September 1, 1945, during the occupation of Berlin.

Great Memoir
Revisado: 01-24-24
This book provides a unique insight into a life of a prominent and controversial leader. A must for those interested in paratrooper history. I wish there was a way to capture the footnotes and maps in the hard copy in the audible version. A friend of mine was reading the hard copy while I finished this and he was able to have much better context and understanding at the end of the book. Overall, still worth the listen!
