To date there have been over 1,836 deaths as a result of
the war in Iraq. That means that there are now over 1,836 parents trying
to deal with the loss of a child, I am one of those parents; this is my
journey.
This journal is one mother's two-year journey after her son died in the
hot dessert of Iraq, were the sand drank his blood and cost an entire
family their loved one's legacy. This book will take the reader to cities
all across the country for recognitions her son received for his valor.
You will accompany her to New York City, to Ground Zero, where it all
began.
Under the Wire : The World War II Adventures of a
Legendary Escape Artist and "Cooler King"
(Hardcover) by William Ash, Brendan Foley
I'm a London-based author and spent the last few years
helping one of North America's greatest unsung heroes of WWII, William
Ash, put together his wartime autobiography UNDER THE WIRE, which has just
been published in USA and Canada.
Bill, who just celebrated his 88th birthday, is probably the greatest
living US prisoner of war escape-artist of WWII. Born in Texas, he joined
the RCAF in 1940 and flew Spitfires until shot down in 1942. He then
became a serial escape artist, attempting 13 PoW-camp escapes - cutting
through the barbed wire, climbing over it, or tunneling under it before
finally escaping for good.
When the book came out in the UK a few months ago, it became an instant
best-seller, but somehow it has been almost completely ignored so far by
the media in North America. The only thing we can do to get Bill and his
book the recognition they deserve in the US and Canada is to turn to the
internet and people who care about WWII and the people who fought it for
us. So I would be very grateful if you would forward this note to anyone
who you think might like the book or help to spread the word that it is
out there, available at most good bookshops or online at Amazon.
A heroic and heretofore untold story of the men of the
87th Chemical Mortar Battalion and their 326 days of combat in Europe
during World War II.
I thought you might find this of interest. I have
written a book, that has recently been released, about my father's WW II
unit, the 87th Chemical Mortar Battalion. One of the Chapters, "The Final
Push" deals with the battalion's support of the 3rd ID in March of 1945 as
the division attacked toward the Siegfried line.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
"During the Iraq War, Capt. Jason Conroy commanded the tankers of Charlie
Company. Charlie Company was part of Task Force 1-64 of the 2nd Brigade
Combat Team, an element of the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Division. Equipped
with mammoth M1A1 Abrams tanks, Conroy's company was at the tip of the
U.S. Army's spear and one of the first elements into Baghdad." "Veteran
journalist Ron Martz was embedded in Charlie Company. Together, from the
unique perspective of an armor unit that was in nearly continuous combat
for four straight weeks, Conroy and coauthor Martz tell the unvarnished
story of what went right in Iraq - and what went deadly wrong. Conroy and
his soldiers were able to overcome supply shortages, intelligence
failures, and miserable weather to battle their way into downtown Baghdad,
a place where they had been told they would never have to fight. Heavy
Metal evaluates the Army's performance, including its use of tactics for
which the soldiers had never trained." Through the personal stories of the
young troopers of Charlie Company - who experienced a very different war
from what was seen back home on TV - Heavy Metal tells us much about the
qualities of today's American soldier, about twenty-first-century desert
and urban warfare, and about how the Army should prepare to fight. Not
simply a day-to-day memoir, it teaches vital lessons for future combat.
CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Christopher Freeman ( cafreeman@valdosta.edu
), A reviewer, February 14, 2005,
The Real Deal
My company commander, CPT Jason Conroy, and our embedded reporter Ron
Martz have put together an outstanding narrative of the Iraq War from the
point of view of the soldier. This is so much more interesting to me than
another book written by some general. If you want to know what it was
really like serving as a tanker in combat, read this book. I was one of
the Cobras during the war and this book really tells it like it happened.
A great read!
An Oklahoma Soldier : A Ride in One Man's Saddle
by Barbara L. Nielsen
Of interest to whet your
taste is a newspaper article on my father concerning his actions while
with the Third. What maybe of more interest is a book my sister wrote on
his life. Some of your followers may
find it of interest of a different life and time of a boy to man
story before, during and after WW 2.
Cold Ground's Been My Bed : A Korean
War Memoir
by Daniel Wolfe (Outpost 52)
List Price: $22.95
Available at amazon.com
Dan Wolfe was a Bronx, New York, teenager whose
passions were baseball, fooling around in school, and hanging out at the
candy store in the 1940s. Three years out of high school, he was drafted
and sent to Korea. Cold Ground’s Been My Bed is his no-holds-barred memoir
of the experience, from his physical to deployment into a frontline
platoon.
Dan tells the story with unflinching honesty and humor amid the tragedies
that befell his company.
Feeling inadequate about handling the Browning
Automatic Rifle in basic training, he expressed his doubts to a cadre man,
who assured him, “You don’t have to worry about it, kid. It’s given to the
biggest men in the squad.” The day he arrived on the front line, Dan,
five-foot-seven and 133 pounds, was assigned the twenty-pound BAR.
When his platoon was ambushed, Dan crawled over fire-swept terrain to
retrieve the body of his sergeant. Decades later he learned that he’d been
cited for the Silver Star, but the Jeep carrying the papers was blown up
by mortar rounds.
When a GI was killed by negligent “friendly fire,” the victim’s buddy
carried out a revenge murder.
In recounting his story, Dan never pretends to be more than he was, a
young man being shocked and shaped by the reality of war.

Mark W. Johnson
Description
Using old regimental records from the Civil War, as well as diaries
and letters, Mark W. Johnson has unearthed a wealth of new material
about this long-neglected topic: he covers every unit and every
battle in compelling narrative and exhaustive detail and reaches
some surprising conclusions about the significant role these troops
played in the Union's eventual victory.
This book covers the full history of the four Regular Army Regiments
that fought in the Civil War's Western Theater, the 15th, 16th, 18th
and 19th U.S. Infantry Regiments.

The United
States 15th Infantry Regiment
in China, 1912–1938
Alfred Emile Cornebise
Description
Taking up its position astride the Peking-Mukden [Beijing-Shenyang] railway
beginning in January, 1912, the United States Fifteenth Infantry Regiment
was engaged in protecting American interests in China. The 1000 man force
was especially challenged during the 1920s, those tumultuous years when
warlords struggled to gain ascendancy in the Chinese Republic. Although
Chiang Kai-shek established a measure of control in China by 1928, the
regiment remained in China—partially to counter Japan’s increasingly
aggressive actions—despite considerable misgivings within and outside of the
United States Army as to the feasibility, desirability, and ethical
appropriateness of the policy retaining it there. The success of the
Japanese in conquering much of eastern China finally compelled Washington to
withdraw the regiment on March 2, 1938.
This work recounts and assesses some aspects of the involvement and service
of the Fifteenth Infantry Regiment during its fateful quarter of a century
in the Orient between the World Wars. Also detailed is the Army’s service in
those years in general. Many insights are provided regarding the
self-perceptions of a key generation of U.S. military personnel deployed
there.

Alfred Emile Cornebise is professor emeritus of History at the University of
Northern Colorado and also the author of The CCC Chronicles (2004). He lives

The Not Forgotten War
by Nicholas Dick Jr, Janet Dailey
THE NOT FORGOTTEN WAR chronicles the experiences of Private
Nicholas Dick who served in a machine gun crew during the last few
months of the Korean conflict. Those last months were among some
of the bloodiest as both sides fought to claim as much territory
as possible prior to reaching a cease-fire agreement. For years
after his discharge, Nick was never able to talk about his
horrific experiences and never mentioned the frequent nightmares
he suffered. After a job injury forced him to take early
retirement, he suddenly found himself becoming a victim of Post
Traumatic Stress syndrome. Here is one GI's story of war and its
aftermath.
Letters Home
From 9/11 to Operation Iraqi Freedom A Military Mom
Shares Her Family's Story of Patriotism, Courage and Love
by
Mary Ward
It sells for $15 + $3.95 for shipping for a total of
$18.95. I give five percent of the sale of each book to the Wounded
Warrior Project. As of 12/13/04 $186.94 has been raised for our
Wounded Warriors.
Letters Home could be any family's war story. There are thousands of
families deeply affected, some with more compelling stories some
with less, all with fears they never dreamed existed. There are some
thoughts that are never far from your heart and mind. This is one
family's journey as told through the words of a soldier's mother and
her son's letters home.
Ward's son, Sean, enlisted in the infantry after the attacks on
9/11. He was driven to take up arms for his country and has not
looked back since. Sean's letters home from basic training to the
last letter home from Iraq range from joy to intensely reflective.
He serves with the 3rd Infantry Division (mechanized) and was
machine gunner on a Bradley during the first phase of Operation
Iraqi Freedom.
Ward shares with the reader how it felt to read his letters and the
life challenges they faced while her son was in the most dangerous
place in the world.
"Mary Ward takes us on an amazing journey, from the
terrors of the battlefield to the tenderness of a mother's heart.
Her "Letters Home" should inspire us all to be brave in adversity,
and 'choose the harder right over the easier wrong'."

At last someone has written about the long overlooked story,
of the critical part played (in December 1950) by the 7th Infantry Regiment, 3rd
Division, in the vicious battle fought at Huksu-ri and Sachang-ni, southwest of
the Chosin Reservoir in North Korea. The book contains 329 pages of real life
adventure, humor, suspense, excitement, worry, disappointment, heartbreak,
death, sadness, depression, recovery, happiness, and a multitude of historic
facts. His life beginning in an upstairs flat in Detroit, Michigan, this is the
story of Terry Lloyd Tennant, born into poverty during the great depression in
the 1930’s, his experiences growing up in the inner city; then (at age 18)
leaving home and enlisting in the United States Army. Known intimately only by
those who were there and survived, it is the authors hope this book will be read
by many of the 3rd Division men, so they will know and perhaps appreciate why we
who were their are so proud of this special chapter in the long and glorious
history of the -

HITLER HERE
A Biographical Novel
George Thomas Clark
"Hitler
Here" is a well researched and carefully written biographical novel offering
firstperson stories by the Fuehrer and a variety of other characters. This
intimate approach
invites the reader to peer into Hitler’s mind, talk to Eva Braun, joust with
Goering,
Goebbels, and Himmler, debate with the generals, fight on land and at sea
and in the air,
and huddle in the death camps as, everywhere, civilization is consumed.
Please check out
http://www.georgethomasclark.com/ -- the author's
official web page - which features information about his biographical novel
HITLER HERE. This work is unique because all the characters have bylines and
thus the opportunity to reveal what they did and how they felt during an era
of unprecedented destruction.
The online excerpts are from the points-of-view of Hitler and six other
characters.
Generals Guderian, Halder, Rudnstedt, Rommel, Manstein, Zhukov, and Patton
also have numerous entries, and so do soldiers from a variety of countries.
At the recent Frankfurt Book Fair, HITLER HERE generated reading copy
requests from several foreign publishers, and the English language rights in
India have just been sold to Mastermind Books.

Every war has images that are burned into the public's mind.
Operation Iraqi Freedom has several....the blinding sandstorms, or the photos of
Iraqis and GIs tearing down statues and paintings of Saddam. The other
memorable event of the war for many was the sight of American armor racing into
the heart of Baghdad, despite the daily assurances from Iraq's Information
Minister that the Allies were nowhere near the city.
The armor was from the US Army's 3rd Infantry Division
(Mechanized), and Los Angeles Times reporter David Zucchino was embedded with
them for their drive up into Iraq, and then on their daring "Thunder Runs" into
the city. A year later, he has released a book about the division's remarkable
armor thrusts into Baghdad and the savage fights on a major highway to the west
of the city as the division sought to re-supply the armored force. "Thunder
Run: The Armored Strike to Capture Baghdad" promises to cement this amazing
story into the annals of American military accomplishments with hundreds of
first-hand accounts of what happened in the first week of
April 2003, so far from Fort Stewart, Georgia. General contributions may be made to:

The Story of B Company, 15th Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division
From Fedala to Salzburg: Audie Murphy and His Brothers in Arms
AUTOBAHN TO BERCHTESGADEN
by Lt Col( Sgt in WWII) Sherman W. Pratt
This book written by a WWII
member of the Army’s Third Infantry Division that led the attack into Iraq in
mid-March 2003 provides the most or only detailed and reliable account available
of the remarkable record of the Division in World War II as witnessed and
experienced by an actual participant.
The Third began its almost three years of fighting in
Africa, Italy, France and Germany with landings near Casablanca in French
Morocco. It had 34,000 casualties, in almost three years of combat, more than
any other Division in either the European or Pacific theaters.39 members
of the Division were awarded Medals of Honor. It was the Division of Lt Audie
Murphy the war’s most decorated soldier.
The Third was also the Division that arrived first and
captured Hitler’s Bavarian retreat at Berchtesgaden in the closing hours of the
War - not the 101stAiborne Division as incorrectly reported by
Stephen Ambrose and Stephen Spielberg respectively in the book and HBO film Band of Brothers,
Anyone with relatives or friends
now serving with the Third Infantry Division and wanting to learn more about its
distinctive, heroic and astonishing history would do well to not delay in
obtaining a copy of this book while limited supplies last. The book in hard back
was listed at $34.95 - current paper back lists $24.95. Copies can be ordered
