Description:
Easy Company, 506th Airborne Division, was as good a rifle company as any in the world, and they drew the tough assignments. Now the author of the national bestseller D-Day tells the story of the men of this remarkable unit who fought, went hungry, froze, and died; a company that took 150 percent casualties and considered the Purple Heart a badge of office. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with survivors as well as the soldiers' journals and letters, Ambrose records -- often in the men's own words -- the stories of these American heroes.
