About the Author
• This volume presents a dramatic collection of significant combat experiences of 79 men in WWII, as told from one combat veteran to another. In the 86 chapters are stories involving all the various branches of combat service and all of the various theaters of war. Within reminiscences, veterans of dangerous encounters are much more apt to open up with details in discussions with men who have also experienced combat. Many find it emotionally distressing to talk of the war with the general public or to recall the horrors of warfare. • This is not a history book nor any attempt to tell the big picture of grand campaigns. Instead it is a collection of personal involvements in one-at-a-time incidents of conflict. Many ask what was it like in WWII, for our conflicts in recent years have been vastly different. • Colonel Roush is particularly qualified to edit the accounts, for he himself was in combat in WWII and served in various branches of the Army. he also held assignments with close contact with the other branches of the Armed Services. He is a professional writer, author of a dozen volumes and many magazine articles. • Col. Roush is a graduate of the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College and the Army War College, the Industrial College of the Armed Forces and the Foreign Service institute of the U. S. Department of State.
