Brought To Battle: A Novel of World War II

By J. Scott Payne

After Rommel's Afrika Korps wounds him, Corporal Alan Dudley is sent home to a training post. Now a sergeant, he's saddled with know-it-all college draftees whom he strives to transform into effective mortar crewmen. After further training in England, 'Dud' leads his men ashore on D-Day at Utah Beach. In minutes, the Wehrmacht hands out some of its own bloody lessons, killing one of his men and wounding a second. The next ten horrific months take them from Normandy's hedgerows to the crossing of the Rhine. As honor graduates of the toughest of all schools, combat itself, the sergeant and his survivors help crush a skilled veteran enemy. If Uris's Battle Cry or Jones's The Thin Red Line captivated your imagination, you should try Brought To Battle. Buy this story of what it was like at the spear's point in the European Theater.
