Download or read book Hang Tough written by Erik Dorr and published by Permuted Press. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major Dick Winters of the 101st Airborne gained international acclaim when the tale of he and his men were depicted in the celebrated book and miniseries Band of Brothers. Hoisted as a modest hero who spurned adulation, Winters epitomized the notion of dignified leadership. His iconic World War II exploits have since been depicted in art and commemorated with monuments. Beneath this marble image of a reserved officer is the story of a common Pennsylvanian tested by the daily trials and tribulations of military duty. His wartime correspondence with pen pal and naval reservist, DeEtta Almon, paints an endearing portrait of life on both the home front and battlefront—capturing the humor, horror, and humility that defined a generation. Interwoven with previously unpublished diary entries, military reports, postwar reminiscences, private photos, personal artifacts, and rich historical context, Winters’s letters offer compelling insights on the individual costs and motivations of World War II service members. Winters’s heartfelt prose reveals his mindset of the moment. From stateside training to the hedgerows of Normandy, his correspondence immerses readers in the dramatic experiences of the 1940s. Via the lost art of letter writing, the immediacy and honesty of Winters’s observations takes us beyond the traditional accounts of the fabled 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment’s Easy Company. This engaging narrative offers a unique blend of personal wit, leadership ethics, and broader observations of a world at war. Hang Tough is a deeply intimate, timely reflection on a rising officer and the philosophies that molded him into a hero among heroes. Hang Tough “will help people better understand the man I knew and respected so much. Folks should know what we all went through during the war.” —Bradford Freeman, Foreword

Download or read book Communist Militaria of the Vietnam War written by Darrel R. Lulling and published by McN Press Subs of Military Collectors' News Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mainly about combat equipment and uniforms of the communist-supplied North Vietnamese forces (NVA or PAVN) and to a lesser extent that of the National Liberation Front (aka, Viet Cong). The NVA was a well supplied, equipped, and trained army, which was supplied with weaponry and equipment of the U.S.S.R (Russia), Peoples Republic of China (Chicom), and Communist Eastern European. The Viet Cong, although generally supplied by North Vietnam, experienced equipment shortages and relied in part on field expediencies, improvisions, and any other equipment and weapons they could employ, resulting in a vast assortment of French, World War II German and Japanese, and U.S. origin...It is difficult to classify a particular piece of equipment as being of either Viet Cong or NVA use.--INTRODUCTION
