The Second World War was the largest armed conflict in human history. It transformed lives, cultures, and civilizations. The men who served-as riflemen, truck drivers, medics, radio operators, clerks, factory workers-provided the means to defeat fascism through tireless effort and heroic sacrifice. Their stories come to light in Victory Through Valor, a book that captures the essence of America's unsurpassed generation. Filled with interviews of more than 100 World War II veterans and their wives, Victory Through Valor recounts the experiences of the combat troops and support personnel, as well as those who remained behind on the home front. It includes depictions of Basic Training, the trip across the Atlantic, D-Day landings at Normandy, the fighting during the Bulge, the subsequent surrender by Germany in May of 1945, and myriad moments in between. Published with the cooperation of the Gateway Chapter of The Veterans of the Battle of the Bulge in St. Louis.
