In the mold of the classic Band of Brothers, Col. French MacLean presents a dramatic, personalized history of a single company of the US Army through brutal combat in battles at locations such as Normandy, the Ardennes and H?rtgen Forests, Merode Castle, and Remagen Bridge.

This is the story of the 9th Division's 39th Infantry Regiment, Company B. Company B was a true American melting pot of soldiers from diverse ethnic, religious, racial, and national backgrounds, including Black, Hispanic, White, Mexican, Lakota, Quechan, Canadian, Cuban, Hungarian, Austrian, Norwegian, Scottish, Korean, Filipino, Chinese, Italian, Irish, Greek, Polish, Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant.

Readers will learn about the heritage, upbringing, and experiences of individual soldiers along with the history of the unit. This is a personal, dramatic history.

Numerous "vignettes" appear throughout the text, which provide contextual information about equipment, terminology, locations, and more. They function like a glossary but with greater detail and narrative effect.

In total, 40 photos and 10 maps are included, most of which are previously unpublished.

French MacLean is a retired colonel in the US Army and author of more than a dozen books on the Second World War; he is a recognized expert and experienced researcher. His father, Myron, served as a private in Company B.
