Roger Clark
"One of the best half-dozen personal accounts of the Normandy campaign." (Richard Holmes)
Stuart Hills embarked his Sherman DD tank on to an LCT at 6:45 a.m., Sunday, June 4th, 1944. He was 20 years old, un-blooded, fresh from a public-school background, and officer cadet training. He was going to war. Two days later, his tank sunk; he and his crew landed from a rubber dinghy with just the clothes they stood in. After that, the struggles through the Normandy bocage in a replacement tank (of the non-swimming variety), engaging the enemy in a constant round of close encounters, led to a swift mastering of the art of tank warfare and remarkable survival in the midst of carnage and destruction. His story of that journey through hell to victory makes for compulsive listening.

P.S. Just read the other review by the reader calling him a “fake Brit”. Seriously? Roger is effing awesome! And I just read that he’s a dual US-Irish citizen. Didn’t sound fake to me. Unless you are pretentious enough to obsess over how someone pronounces “threepence” (assuming you even know what that is, because I for one do not), I think you’ll enjoy it.
Great Book, Awesome Narrator
