With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa
Much praise has - rightfully - been given to this book. And I can't add more to what has already been said and written about it.What I can say is that it is one of those books that leaves me with a lasting impression
I can only recommend it as a 'must read' to any who study the Pacific War - any war, for that matter - as a reminder that 'War is brutish, inglorious, and a terrible waste' (Page 317) and to carry out most of the overall land war strategy was the 'boots on the ground', the rifleman.
