Hardback. Condizione: Fair. In 1942, the 82nd Infantry Division at Camp Claiborne, Louisiana, was split in two. One of the new divisions began intense preparations and training for a surprise landing on the Nazi-occupied European continent. The location was Normandy, France; the date was June 6, 1944; and the division was the 101st Airborne: the legendary "band of brothers." This is the story of that divisions heroic performance on D-Day, and right up to the Allied victory in Europe. Filled with historic images, many never before published, it is also a tribute to the fallen men of the 101st--the artists and athletes, scientists and mathematicians, architects and builders whose sacrifice secured the future but left the human race much diminished. Theirs is an accomplishment well-known but rarely so dramatically depicted: Here is the 101st landing on Utah Beach, coming in by parachute, or glider, or from the sea. Stirring words and pictures capture the landing, linking the Utah and Omaha beachheads; the divisions breaking of the German drive to the coast; and their brilliant stand at Bastogne; a refusal to yield so famously summed up in the commanders reply to a German call for surrender: "Nuts.". …

The paratroopers of the US 101st Airborne Division were given one the the toughest assignments of World War II-to parachute or crash-land in gliders behind the German lines at night before the amphibious invasion of France began on 6 June 1944. They were the elite of the US Army and were primed and ready to take on the Germans. As Lt. William J. Russo, commander of the 81mm mortar platoon of HQ/2 501 put it: "A lot of sorry bastards who wore mouse gray regretted the day I joined the Army." The 101st Airborne at Normandy is a superb new oral and pictorial history of the Screamin' Eagles in combat on D-day and in the critical battles to secure a foothold on the Conti-nent, written by a historian who has been interviewing 101st veterans and collecting photographs and memorabilia of the 101st for more than twen-ty-five years. This book is packed with first-person stories some funny, some sad, some shocking-of the troopers who were there, surrounded, behind enemy lines, with no hope of rescue if the invasion failed. Though the troopers were forbidden to jump with cameras, some did, and others captured German cameras. The photos they took of their buddies and the battle scenes are presented here with photos of 101st Airborne memorabilia and the Norman battlegrounds today.…
