Cold, Wet and Miserable

By J. Allen Clary

This is the story about eleven men sent on a mission behind enemy lines. Eleven American soldiers who would like nothing else, but to eat hot meals and sleep in a warm tent, or stand beside a roaring fire, but there is a war going on and these kind of luxuries can't exist up on the front lines Sergeant 1st Class Alfred Brooks has been through many throat gripping situations. His calmness in battle and his ability to make quick battlefield decisions, has earned him the respect of his commanders, and the men in his platoon. Along with Corporal Alex Sims, Corporal Charles Baker, Private Samuel Lemons, Private Timothy Jackson, and six others, they face the harsh winter in the Ardennes Forest against immeasurable odds and the feared and fanatical SS. It is a gripping story of their fight for survival and their determination to accomplish their mission. Trapped behind the German juggernaut, they find themselves moving deeper into German held territory, heading east into Germany itself just to keep from getting captured or killed. These eleven men fought side by side in the harsh climate of North Africa and earned their honors fighting against the fierce soldiers of Rommels' feared "Africa Corp" and the determined German defenders in the hedgerows of Normandy, and then battled their way across France into Belgium. Ride along with these heroic soldiers as they battle their way across the frozen landscape on their way back to allied lines and friendly faces.
