First time author, Captain James McLeod, is obviously not a first time storyteller. And his book, "Battery Commander: Five Battle Stars", is not your typical story of war. The storytelling is flawless and the perspectives and insights are unique. You won't be able to put this book down. Effortlessly woven into the grim, candid images of war you'll find a chance encounter under fire with Ernest Hemingway and a treasure trove of other real stories and fascinating characters, brilliantly told and affectionately portrayed by an author who clearly liked and admired these courageous men and women. Amid the constant fear and death you'll find a special love story about "the real heroines at home", all written with a wonderful sense of humor and humanity. The author creates, with remarkable recall, an honest, clear-eyed self-portrait of a typical soldier that could have been any one of the thousands of young men who set aside their lives to face death and "do the job" to free Europe, Africa and the Far East from Fascism. With great skill the author draws the reader into this compelling saga. It could be the reader's relative or friend, the self-described "country bumpkin", that this true story follows through stateside Artillery training, England, D-Day, the five major battles of Northern Europe, Occupation and an emotional Homecoming. Captain McLeod was among the lucky ones that returned. After several close scrapes, some that killed his close friends, the author reveals the inevitable, gripping fear that his luck had run out--that he would never see his new son. On another level, with an engineer's precision and the skill of a seasoned storyteller, the author masterfully constructs a looking glass into the sweep of history and mood of these critical years. At the beginning of the 21st Century, when America's values seem to be flagging, you'll come away with a profound appreciation for the everyday values that were the bedrock for the courage and sacrifice that was so typical of the time. Captain McLeod describes his encounters with the Soviet Army during occupation and leaves you with little doubt why there were other "isms" yet to defeat. The reader, at the Captain's side during a guided tour of just liberated concentration camps, is inevitably lured to a contemporary question, "Should the Allies have acted preemptively to stop the slaughter?"

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Navy obtained approximately 700 vessels from private owners, armed them, designated them as patrol yachts (PY) or patrol craft (YP), and sent them to sea. The vessels spanned the spectrum from yacht to waterfront work horse-fishing vessel, whaler, tug, and freighter. San Diego tuna fishermen-including those that would be aboard their boats at the Battle of Midway, and at Guadalcanal supporting the 1st Marines-donned Navy uniforms without the benefit of "boot camp" training and went off to war. They were joined by fishermen and yachtsmen from ports and harbors all across America, as well as men straight from cities and rural towns. Officers and crewmen who took vessels into harm's way received the Navy Cross, and other awards for valor for acts of heroism performed under fire. Officers aboard the yachts Fisheries II and Maryanne were awarded Navy Crosses for their actions during the defense of the Philippines-three posthumously, as they died while prisoners of war. Three men aboard the YP-346-sunk by the Japanese light cruiser Sendai-also earned Navy Crosses, and the YP-346 and two other former tuna boats at Guadalcanal received the Presidential Unit Citation for heroism. YPs and PYs at Saipan, Okinawa, Iwo Jima, Leyte, and Balikpapan earned battle stars for combat; the ex-halibut boat YP-251 was credited with sinking a Japanese submarine in Alaskan waters, and the patrol yacht Siren earned a battle star during one of the most successful series of attacks on a convoy by a single German submarine. Others did not fare so well; the YP-389 and patrol yacht Cythera were lost to German U-boats in infamous "Torpedo Junction" off North Carolina. All of the unheralded vessels served when called, and like militiamen of old, they were mustered out when no longer needed. Battle Stars for the "Cactus Navy" is a companion book of MacArthur and Halsey's "Pacific Island Hoppers."
