They fought on Utah Beach, in Arnhem, Bastogne, the Bulge; they spearheaded the Rhine offensive and took possession of Hitler's Eagle's Nest in Berchtesgaden. This gripping depiction of Easy Company re-creates some of the most critical moments of WWII and offers insights into the commanders and regular soldiers--the heroes who manned the battlefields.
This bestselling title chronicles Company E of the 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, from its birth in 1942 until its disbandment in 1945. It is a wonderful tale of bravery, horror, sacrifice, and the things that make the American soldier the best in the world. Although we are told the context of the war in which these men fought, this is primarily a story of men in battle. Tim Jerome ably reads this work. His strong voice is clear, moving at a steady, but unhurried, pace. Sometimes he will effect specific voices for quotations, which he does well. M.T.F. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine
