"Packs On!" : Memoirs of the 10th Mountain Division
Editorial Reviews
Review
“The soldiers have contributed fascinating photographs, the maps Feuer provides are impressive, and coincidentally very intimidating, and the forward by Senator Bob Dole, one of the soldiers involved, indicates he should seriously consider a career in book reviewing.”–
“Packs On contains 22 fascinating, informative and well-written stories told in the first person. Sometimes humorous, always gritty and realistic, this gem of a book chronicles a seldon-reported chapter of WWII history.”–
Book Description
This history of the 10th Mountain Division during World War II focuses on the personal experiences of the mountain troops who served in Alaska and Italy. Feuer conveys the opinions expressed by the veterans about the conduct of the campaigns--both the good and the bad, with no holds barred. Senator Bob Dole, who was seriously wounded during the campaign, provides a foreword. This fascinating account also reveals the differences in training and strategy from those employed by German ski troops of the same era.
