Merriam Press Military Monograph 118. Second Edition (June 2012). This is the story of an inductee into the Army during World War II and his ventures from basic training into and through combat and assignment to postwar duties during which he remained a PFC. It is a view of the war in Europe from the invasion of Africa through the postwar period until the occupation forces were established in Germany and the inductees brought home. It refutes or adds to some stories by high ranking civilian officials and Army officers that have been published and tells the story as seen from a very low level. It recognizes heroes and others without blatantly condemning anyone other than stating what actually happened by personal witness. The reader can draw his own conclusions regarding right or wrong. The author offers this story as part of history and to show that with the best of publicized intentions the facts may vary from those reported. With the goal of obtaining personal recognition there have been situations to be recorded and evaluated against publicized stories written for profit or personal gain. In so doing the author intends to offer entertaining reading and food for thought along with what really happened by his own views on the scenes in which he was involved.

From the day he went to his elder brother's King's Squad Parade at Chatham in 1937, all Len Chester wanted was to become a bugler/drummer boy. Two years later, when he was fourteen, he did just that and joined the Royal Marines. This is his story. He tells of life on board HMS Iron Duke - the 'tin duck', in the dangerous waters of Scapa Flow and then on the Arctic Convoys to Russia as a boy among hundreds of men. What he saw, heard, thought, ate, smelled and above all, how he felt; how he learned the many bugle calls, played at the funerals of six men blown up in their minesweeper when he had never been to a funeral before or even seen a coffin - and burst into tears in the middle of it. Len Chester survived the war and came home. At Remembrance Day Parades he wears the rare off-white beret to which only men from the Arctic Convoys are entitled to wear - yellow-white because blood turns yellow when frozen in snow.This is history made live, the experiences of a boy at war recalled with a man's distinctive voice. It is moving, humbling, fascinating in its everyday detail and overwhelmingly powerful in its impact.

A navy admiral’s firsthand accounts of three triumphant operations in Europe and North Africa during World War II. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, naval engineering genius Edward Ellsberg came out of retirement to serve his country once again. In these three riveting histories, he recounts the incredible salvage missions and audacious battle plans he took part in during the Second World War. Under the Red Sea Sun: In 1942, Mussolini’s forces were on the run in East Africa. At Massawa, Eritrea, the fleeing Italians left the largest mass wreck in the world, turning a vital port into a tangle of shattered ships and dangerous booby traps. In order to continue the war effort and push back the Axis powers in Africa, the Allies enlisted Commander Ellsberg, who navigated the complicated American and British bureaucracies to pull off a historic feat of engineering—the largest of its kind the world had ever seen. The Far Shore: Rear Admiral Ellsberg describes in detail the meticulous preparation and efforts behind the Normandy Invasion—efforts that would keep the flow of men and materials streaming onto the beaches and into the heart of Europe. From dealing with the extremes of engineering possibilities to wrestling with the knowledge that countless lives depended on the success of his intricate planning, Ellsberg worked himself into exhaustion to do his part. Vividly described by a man who saw firsthand the horrors of war and the cost of victory, The Far Shore takes readers through the brutal surf, onto the bloody beaches, and into the mind of one of World War II’s little-known heroes. No Banners, No Bugles: In Oran, Algeria, a crucial port city, Ellsberg helped the Allies prepare for Operation Torch, the fight to reclaim North Africa from the Axis powers. As General Eisenhower’s chief of salvage in the Mediterranean, Ellsberg had to sort out the disorganized mess left by the Vichy French and find a way to open the harbor, though his flagging health proved to be a dangerous obstacle. No Banners, No Bugles is the riveting story of how Ellsberg, the miracle worker, tackled his greatest mission yet.

June of 1967 started as just another uneventful Ohio summer for young Ed Edelhagen, editor-publisher of The Austerlitz Bugle-Telegraph. But an eight-inch rainstorm washed through Hillcrest County and exposed a cascade of local scandals involving the town's most prominent family his own. Ed, the son of an honored World War II Army veteran and grandson of a highly decorated World War I Marine gunnery sergeant, is fueled by a dogged determination to face past family secrets. In the midst of his personal and professional crisis, Ed is forced to cover the biggest theft his sleepy Appalachian town has ever seen. Strangely, the answers to everything lie in the Austerlitz Cemetery.

The author presents an extremely detailed record of the organization, doctrine, and equipment of the Armored Division of September 1943. He examines each unit of the division. A chapter is dedicated to the Tank Battalion, Armored Infantry Battalion, but also Maintenance and Medical Battalions. The author examines the organization and tactical doctrine of each unit and studies the doctrine of employment of the unit, as well as the duties of key personnel. Each sub-unit is presented by lists of personnel, weapons, vehicles, and equipment. The book includes 146 charts depicting the organization of all units. In each chapter, a special paragraph examines the modifications made in the field by armored division’s units, as found in unit reports, and histories, and veterans recollections. This is an essential reference for re-enactors, modellers, wargamers, researchers, and all those who require a detailed guide to the U.S. Armored Division during WWII.
