Story5 out of 5 stars 62
Landing on the Anzio beachhead in February 1944, Phil is put in charge of an Ammunition Pioneer Platoon in the 3rd Infantry Division. Their job: deliver ammunition to the frontline foxholes—a dangerous assignment involving regular forays into No Man’s Land. As Phil fights his way up the Italian boot, into Southern France and across the Rhine River into Germany, he is caught up in some of the most intense combat ever. But it’s what happens in the final stages of the war and his homecoming that makes Phil’s story incredibly special and heartwarming.

A detailed insight into the life of a true American hero! Incredible detail and passion in this work which makes you feel as if you are on the front lines with Philip Larimore and the Dog Face Soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Division.
A must read and phenomenal tribute to the newest member of the 3ID’s Marne Hall of Fame.
