by Robert N. Going (Author)
The general who supplies the American forces in Europe, the private who leads a company of POWs to freedom, the spunky heiress who becomes a spy, the dimple-chinned ensign who becomes a movie star, the doctor who sees through Rudolph Hess, the soccer team heard round the world, the airplane mechanic at Hickam Field, the National Guard boys who become men on Saipan, the grocer's son in the first wave on Omaha Beach, the Navy flier who opens the air field on Guadalcanal, the circus act that produces seven fighting men from the same family; all these and more do their part to win World War II, and all spring from the same hero-producing environs of Amsterdam, New York. It's time we said thank you. This book will make sure they are never forgotten.
