Loyalist - Yeah, "Six Armies in Normandy" is excellent. I keep mentioning Paul Fussel, but if you like to read this sort of stuff his perspective is valuable. Fussel led me to a little known book, the memoirs of Cpl. Sledge. Sledge fought at Pelilu and Okinawa and the memoirs are short, graphic, and very disturbing.
Jonesy, its people like you that make it impossible for me to drink coffee at the computer. I laughed so hard at your post that I'm still cleaning the sprayed coffee from my moniter.
