Tom Hanks wrote the introduction to this rousing story of two inseparable friends and soldiers portrayed in the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers.

William "Wild Bill" Guarnere and Edward "Babe" Heffron were among the first paratroopers of the U.S. Army - members of an elite unit of the 101st Airborne Division called Easy Company. Arguably the bravest, most efficient, physically fit, and tight-knit group of soldiers the Army has ever produced, the unit was called upon for every high-risk operation of the war, including D-Day, Operation Market Garden in Holland, the Battle of the Bulge, and the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest in Berchtesgaden.

Both fought side-by-side until Guarnere lost his leg in the Battle of the Bulge and was sent home. Heffron went on to liberate concentration camps and rake Hitler's Eagle's Nest hideout. United by their experience, the two reconnected at the war's end and have been the best of friends ever since. Their story is a tribute to the lasting bond forged between comrades in arms - and to all those who fought for freedom.

These men, this book is a treasure. Somewhere along the way we have forgotten what it means to believe in something greater than ourselves. All Americans should read or listen to this book to remember. Thank you Wild Bill, Babe and all of the Band of Bothers.

Excellent

Dick Hill is probably the best narrator I have ever heard. When he has a great story, he’s in a
league of his own. This is that great story!

This book had all of the emotions of life. I laughed so hard sometimes. I teared up sometimes. I almost it should be required reading. I really enjoyed it. I felt like Bill and Babe were next to me drinking beer and telling war stories.

Remarkable Friendship

This book is a must read after you watch Band Of Brothers. This is not just another war book. This book goes much deeper that the HBO series. I really enjoyed reading this book. The narrator can be a little too overacting at times, but its the perfect part. Great book.

Must read after watching BOB

What did you love best about Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends?

The story itself was fascinating, and the narration was top notch. I routinely forgot that it wasn't actually Wild Bill and Babe speaking. Dick Hill did a great job narrating this wonderful story of best friends.

Fantastic audiobook!
