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 Collection of World War II Memoirs, a new book from Reedy Press. Collected and edited by Dr. George Despotis, Donald E. Korte, and Matthew Lary, this substantial volume truly 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. Our World War II veterans are vanishing, and along with them goes the opportunity to understand their unparalleled commitment and courage. Victory Through Valor illuminates their story and shows readers how a generation led us through one of the most serious crises in the history of mankind, to one of the greatest triumphs in American history. The book is published with the cooperation and encouragement of the Gateway Chapter of The Veterans of the Battle of the Bulge in St. Louis, Missouri.
