JUMP INTO DARKNESS (SAUT DANS L'OBSCURITE) by Thomas W. Porcella |
|
This story follows Tom Porcella, member of H Company, 508th PIR from his day of enlist in November 1942 through his personal experiences in Normandy where he emerged as one of but seventeen men of H Company who had not been killed or wounded.
.Tom demonstrates a keen eye and a sharp wit as he reels off tale after tale during the 508th's 37 days in Normandy and some of these observations are truly horrific but there are moments of amusement as well.. |
