Download Sixty Days in Combat: An Infantryman's Memoir of World War II in Europe AudioBook Free
"The infantryman's battle is... with no slightest hesitation the dirtiest, roughest job of them all." He travelled in as a armed forces history buff, a virgin, and a teetotaler. He came out with a battle bride, a preference for German beverage, and intimate knowledge of one of the darkest elements of history. His name is Dean Pleasure, and this was his battle. For two weeks in 1945, Pleasure endured and survived the day-to-day deprivations and hazards of being a frontline infantryman. His incredibly detailed memoir, self-illustrated with numerous views Pleasure remembers from his amount of time in Europe, brings back the sights, noises, and smells of the experience as few catalogs ever have. This is actually the story of a man who dreamed of flying fighter plane and instead was chosen to be cannon fodder in France and Germany... who witnessed the brutality of Nazis eliminating Allied medics utilizing the cross on their helmets as goals... and who narrowly escaped being wounded or killed in several "near pass up" shows, the last which occurred on his previous day of combat. Sixty Days and nights in Fight re-creates all the dilemma of the "dogface's" combat, a time that altered one young man in a battle that changed the world.
