Either he or one of three officers on this staff personally covered every major operation after 1942.

Told with the accuracy of a historian, the pace of an experienced narrator, the detail of firsthand observation and participation, it is a full record of what was, at the time it occurred, the largest overseas expedition ever undertaken. …
