Red Legs Of The Bulge
Artillerymen in the Battle of the Bulge
From Amazon:
"This book offers a fantastic history lesson and great insight to
the difficulties the American artillery units faced during the Battle of the
Bulge. The author has clearly invested countless hours in research and
interviews. That effort gave me a real picture of what this group of dedicated
soldiers wen through during that pivotal period of WWII.
Whether you're a history buff or not, you will find this book to be a real page
turner. " *****
"If anyone wants to read a very interesting and basically True
story. This is it. The field Artillery never gets any credit for the part that
they play in a Battle. You will learn how the Artillery works and what a great
small Battalion of the 106th Inf. Div. did in the Battle of the Bulge." *****
"Very informative and helps give the Artillery Battalions their due credit, including the African-Americans who helped win the BOB ."
"Nice, succinct view of an artilleryman's view of combat. "
MWSA Review
Red Legs of the Bulge draws the reader inside the lives of an artillery unit during arguably one of WWll's bloddiest battles.
The
author using hundreds of hours of careful research and focusing on the 106th.
Infantry Division, while acknowledging other units draws you into the battle
and the lives of those that lived it. History buffs will enjoy the effort and story, casual readers will come away
with a better understanding of what war is and does.
The escape of a few men from the Germans creates a story within a story,
demonstrating the will and courage of those that fought. This is a book worthy
of your time."
