WIN PORTER had seven uncles who lived through WWII battles such as torpedoed ships, Kamakazi attacks, underwater demolition, invasions of Southern France and North Africa and mega-battles with Rommel. Just seven years old when the war ended, Porter has a good perspective of "the big war" from his uncles and many relatives and friends. These seven servicemen -- part of the "greatest generation" -- then led productive post-war lives as they raised their families and served their communities. This book engages us to recall and re-live the pride of a nation whose enormous military successes were shaped by the heroic engagement of its every-day citizens.
