The United States Army drafted Steve in 1969. Like many young men, he was unaware of the consequences of being drafted until being sent to Vietnam. Although his father was also drafted into the Armed Forces for World War II, nothing could have prepared Steve for the year of duty to come. Growing up in a large family, he developed a talent early on for storytelling. His accounts of Vietnam will have you imagining him sitting across a campfire telling his story.

This is the story of Sepp Scheibenzuber, a simple man. For most of his early life, Sepp didn't make choices. Choices were made for him. At 13, he wanted to continue his schooling, but his parents had other ideas and soon he was toiling on the farms of Bavaria. Thereafter, he knew nothing else and so continued working on the land until he was drafted into the German Army. There was no question that he would go. He had never heard of anyone even contemplating avoiding the draft. And so within months he was fighting a war against Frenchman, a people whom he knew little about other than the Nazi's said they were evil. And in the following years, he fought the Russians and suffered almost unendurable depravation. But somehow Sepp endured. He obeyed. He did what he was told along with millions of other Germans. It never even entered his mind that he had an alternative. All the choices were made for him, except one. He wanted to survive.

Elite paratrooper Sgt. Don Malarkey takes us not only into the World War II battles fought from Normandy to Germany, but into the heart and mind of a soldier who lost his best friend during the nightmarish engagement at Bastogne. Drafted in 1942, Malarkey arrived at Camp Toccoa in Georgia and was one of the one in six soldiers who earned their Eagle wings. He went to England in 1943 to provide cover on the ground for the largest amphibious military attack in history: Operation Overlord. In the darkness of D-day morning, Malarkey parachuted into France and within days was awarded a Bronze Star for his heroism in battle. He fought for twenty-three days in Normandy, nearly eighty in Holland, thirty-nine in Bastogne, and nearly thirty more in and near Haugenau, France, and the Ruhr pocket in Germany. Easy Company Soldier is his dramatic tale of those bloody days fighting his way from the shores of France to the heartland of Germany, and the epic story of how an adventurous kid from Oregon became a leader of men.

A Common Soldier is a true story, told by a single American warrior during the North African and Italian campaigns of World War 2. It could have been the story of hundreds of thousands of other young Americans who were snatched from their families, jobs and schoolhouses and cast into the most terrible ordeal ever in the history of mankind. No training could have adequately prepared these young people, many, if not most, still teenagers, for the sights, sounds and smells they would experience. Above all, the sheer terror of not knowing if they would live to see their loved ones again or even if they would see the sun come up tomorrow was with them continually. They watched in horror as their buddies were blown to pieces by mortar and artillery fire, or mortally wounded by machine-guns. What could they do? Their commanders said "Go!" and they went, many times to their certain death. Control of their own lives was cruelly taken away from them.Today, only a few of the men and women who experienced this epic-horror are still alive today. In a few short years, they will all be gone, taking to their graves the stories of the hell-on-earth that was World War 2. I have captured some of the many stories I heard throughout out my lifetime from the soldier who is the subject of this book: my father. He was a gentle man who could never have imagined himself harming a fellow human being, much less killing someone. After being shot at nearly every day, badly wounded a few times and seeing his crew members and friends killed and maimed, his attitude necessarily changed. By the end of the war, he was a hardened soldier, but like most of his comrades, he would quickly put the memories of the war and the feelings he had for his enemy away as best he could and assimilate into the world he would reenter after the artillery shells and bombs were no longer in the air. But, like so many others, these memories were never really erased. The thought of killing another man troubled my father until the day he died.This book is intended to capture the ferocity, and the horror of war and to describe the extraordinary sacrifices our common soldiers made every day. This was not a video game, nor was it a gentleman's war. World War 2 was humankind at his worst. Eighty million people died as the result of it, most being old men, women and children. Nearly 35% of the casualties of World War 2 were in the Soviet Union - twenty-five million people; unimaginable in today's world of peace, prosperity and unlimited potential. But could it ever happen again? The lesson we should learn from the events of World War 2 is that too much power in the hands of a few can lead to such things. As my father would say, these few make promises to their people that only a war can keep. Albert Einstein famously predicted, "I don't know how World War 3 will be fought, but World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones." We must never let it happen.
