Healers and Heroes: WWII Combat Medics: Mud and Blood from the Normandy Beaches to The Battle of the Bulge

By Walter Abel German Jr., Thea Marshall, Robert Thomas Marshall

The Battle of the Bulge "...was the largest and bloodiest single battle fought by the United States in World War II and the second deadliest battle in American history..." (Wikipedia)Healers and Heroes is the riveting day-by-day account of the movements and actions of 22 men from the 26th (Yankee) Division rifle battalion aid station, from its landing on the French coast of Normandy in September 1944, through heavy combat in Lorraine, Eastern France, to its ultimate test in the Battle of the Bulge across the Ardenne during the winter of 1944-1945, followed by the final breakthrough into Germany and the end of World War II in Europe. The main narrator, Lt. Robert Marshall, was awarded the Silver Star for gallantry for his actions on January 9th, 1945 near North Nothum, Luxemburg. Following Marshall's wounding and evacuation, this narrative was completed by SSgt Walter German.
