156 pages, well illustrated, cloth, DJ, 10 by 10 inches, very good. From the estate of aviation collector Colin H. Kidd and with his embossed sticker. From the DJ: The assignment was so hazardous, soldiers of the elite 101st Airborne could not be forced to go, they had to volunteer. The mission entailed nighttime parachuting into the midst of Nazi-occupied France some five hours before the first waves of Allied troops hit the beaches at Normandy. Their objective was to open the way for the Utah Beach landings. With almost insane heroics, these fearless warriors waged a win-or-die struggle to pave the way for the greatest invasion in history. 101st Airborne: The Screaming Eagles at Normandy stands as a lasting tribute to these American folk heroes. Noted World War II historian Mark Bando shares decades of research, the result of nearly a thousand interviews with 101st members and numerous trips to Normandy. From hundreds of rare, unpublished photographs and countless untold stories, he has recreated the paratroopers' perspective of events that took place on D-Day. 101st Airborne: The Screaming Eagles at Normandy is a must for anyone interested in the untold story of what happened behind the lines on D-Day. From Wikipedia: "The 101st Airborne Division—the "Screaming Eagles"—is a U. S. Army modular light infantry division trained for air assault operations. During World War II, it was renowned for its role in Operation "Overlord", the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, in Normandy, France, Operation "Market Garden", the liberation of Holland and action during the "Battle of the Bulge" around the city of Bastogne, Belgium.";
