Hundreds of novels have been written about young men coming of age in war. And millions of young men have, in fact, come of age in combat. This is the story of one of them, as told by his daughter, based on the daily letters he wrote to his family in 1944 and 1945. Further insights are gained from additional personal and family archives, interviews with surviving family members, official paperwork, the unit history of the 63rd Infantry Division, unit newspapers, pictorial histories, maps, and accounts by other unit members.
