A World War II memoir. I served in Troop A of the 43rd Mechanized Cavalry Reconnaissance Squadron as part of Patton's Third Army from October 1943 to November 1945 and was on the front lines from August 5, 1944 until Germany's surrender on May 7, 1945. This is my story.
Members Reviews:
I loved reading about what life was like back then
Very interesting. I loved reading about what life was like back then.
Great Details of a Soldier's Life from Boot Camp to Honorable Discharge
Quick read of one soldier's life. I especially appreciated the discussion of life from draft notice to honorable discharge. Great bits of information are included. Basic training was 17 weeks long (although this probably also included what we now call AIT). His deployed immediate unit consisted of ten men and three vehicles: lead by a Sergeant, with two jeeps and a light armored car, armed with rifles, .50 caliber machine gun, a 37mm main gun on the armored car along with a .30 Browning chain gun. Good break from reading history at the strategic level. It's great to learn what the soldiers with their boots on the ground had to do, not only the hazardous tasks, but also the mundane logistics. Thank you to Mr. McCormick for serving our country, and also thank you to Mr. Rippl for telling his story.
