Download or read book Patton s Vanguard written by Don M. Fox and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stirring accounts of the almost legendary campaigns of the United States Fourth Armored Division, universally recognized as "Patton's Best," from its pre-World War II origins up through its famous relief of the 101st Airborne Division during the Battle of the Bulge are presented in this book. The break out of Normandy at Avranches, the isolation of the Brittany peninsula, the armored thrust across France, the tank battles at Arracourt that cemented the reputation of the Fourth Armored, the brutal struggle in Lorraine, and, ultimately, the legendary drive to Bastogne are among the topics. The accounts were assembled through the use of original unit combat diaries and after-action reports, memoirs of key historical figures and abundant supplementary documents and correspondences. But the essence of the book are the first-hand recollections from members of the division gathered by the author. With maps, drawings and photographs.

This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diary notes, letters exchanged with his wife, Loretta, and newspaper reports tell the story of From Bastogne to Bavaria, and tell it like it was, without pulling punches or prettying up the facts. This is not a "Hollywood version" of the War, but reality, with its chaos and dirt and death as well as its comedy and pranks and faith. From induction to discharge, this story relates battle activities and relationships with his associates. The narration of the day-by-day experience of battle and religious service offered men in hard places, of comrades and enemies, of drama and comedy is swift reading. The vivid word-scenes are dramatic, rich with good humor under stress, and awesome in their portrayal of a world at war.

Download or read book Paths of Armor written by Vic Hillery and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paths of Armor, first published in 1950, is the account of the historic 5th Armored Division from the time of its formation in October 1941, until the end of the World War II in May 1945. Included in this kindle edition are more than 100 pages of photographs and maps. Because of the secrecy of its missions and the speed at which it moved, the Division was also known as "Patton's Ghosts" (the division was part of Patton's Third Army), and because of its many successes, as the "Victory Division." Following training in the U.S., the Division transferred to England, and landed on Utah Beach in Normandy on July 24, 1944. Then followed months of combat as the Division moved across northern France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and into Germany. In December 1944, the Division took part in the fierce fighting in the Hurtgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge.
Download or read book In Final Defense of the Reich written by Stephen M Rusiecki and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2010-10-15 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 1945, the American 71st Infantry Division exacted the final vestiges of life from the Reich’s 6th SS Mountain Division in central Germany. This analysis of the battle demonstrates that the Wehrmacht’s last gasp on the Western Front was anything but a whimper as some historians charge. Instead, Stephen Rusiecki argues, the Nazis fought to exact every last bit of pain possible. The book follows the histories of both the German and American divisions from their inceptions until their fateful confrontation and serves as a testament to the human experience in war, from the perspective of the soldiers and the civilians who suffered the brunt of the fighting.
