    I have most if not everything he every wrote and we'll no doubt get more snow and I'll have a few weeks to re-read much of it.
    On a planet now very far away they had used book stores and for a couple of bucks you could walk out with a whole shopping bag of books.

    A visceral and momentous narrative of the first twenty-four hours of D-Day on Omaha Beach: the most dramatic Allied landing of World War II.

    Early in 1944, German commander Field Marshal Erwin Rommel took a look at the sloping sands and announced "They will come here!” He was referring to "Omaha Beach”. The beach was then transformed into three miles of lethal, bunker-protected arcs of fire, with seaside chalets converted into concrete strongpoints, with layers of barbed wire and mines
    .

    Lying around the house, can't remember how it got here, but over Christmas took a page, and found it Great!
    ..non stop fantastic detail ...like you are their, biggest fear the germans had was being sent to the east

    9/10 (thats 24 hours on Omaha Beach)
