Greatly told story on what the Marines went through in WW2

Revisado: 02-02-23

I liked this book on a couple of levels. For one it told the story of a multitude of Marines. There were some names that I never have heard of. Men this nation owes a debt of gratitude that we will never be able to repay. So not a boy does it tells a great story of the fighting in the Pacific in WW2 but it gives you a start to look for and find the memoirs of the forgotten ones. Great story well written. Recommend this for anyone wishing to learn more about the WW2 experience in the Pacific.

Wow! Loved the story

Revisado: 12-02-22

Good Book! Almost impossible to put down. I like the fact that James Bradley was able to weave the story from both sides & incorporated their families in it as well. So glad this story has been told.

A scripted and read story of The Air War in Europ

Revisado: 10-30-22

I liked how the author took the narrative’s from various different personal in the 8th Air Force & intertwined them with the official records. Made them to come to life! If you love reading Air War History this is a good one to listen/read. There is something for every historian in this listen. It was hard to put down!

Great Listen!

Revisado: 10-01-22

This book brought me back in time & what a great trip it was! I know those guys just played a hockey game but it was so much more to millions of Americans. Just wanted to thank Michael for telling his story. You don’t even have to be a sports fan to love this story! I’m 55 years old and even before this book or any other celebration for the Lake Placid Gold came out she knew the story!! Thank you 1980 US Mens Hockey!

Amazing Story!!

Revisado: 08-28-22

Amazed I’d never heard of Billy Waugh before. Read the book by Rick Prado “Black Ops” and he mentioned Billy Waugh as a hero of his. A very unassuming tale as he tells it but … WOW!! What an amazing career he has had. If you like reading about Special Forces don’t pass this one up! And to think after spending 20 plus years in SF & 7 years in Vietnam he spent 3 years working for the postal service!! I’ll never look at my mail carrier in the same way again! God Bless men like Billy Waugh & thinks for being able to hear his story!

First Time I’ve listened to a Book about General Lemay

Revisado: 07-12-22

I’ve always enjoyed reading about the Air War in WW2. In the accounts and books and some scattered magazine articles I’ve read he is mentioned many times and in many ways but this book does a good job of painting the man both in and out of the uniform. His childhood, his early years and entrance to aviation. I couldn’t put this book down. I think a great piece for the aviation historian to get a feel for who Curtis Lemay was. I drew a lot of similarities between him & Grant/Sherman.

A Hard To Put Down Lusten

Revisado: 03-06-22

I love the story about what it was like for the sailors who fought in the Pacific. It painted good picture of the stories of their life and how they and the their families carried on after the war with all the suffering that ensued from their service. I as a grateful American can’t begin to thank them enough for their service.

For a person who enjoys reading about history…

Revisado: 10-04-21

You will enjoy this read! Hard to put down. Covers Historical events from the English Civil War with Cromwell to the early struggle for Irish Independence the tribulations of English Justice. Forced settlement in Australia to the American Civil War & its great migration westward. Interesting people live in interesting times & Thomas Francis Meagher was no exception. The reader wove his story with ease throughout all his life. Well written & I will read it again!

Great Story!!

Revisado: 10-05-20

I liked this story in many levels. It gives the view point from a soldiers eyes from both sides of the fence so to speak and tells of the bravery & horror that the air war in Europe was. Frank Stigler was a credit to all men who where the uniform. The audio was good & it was hard to put down. Good listen for people who like first hand war experiences who like history. You won’t be disappointed!
