Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. ? The daring exploits of the first special forces unit of WWII ?World War II tale of adventure ?Available in paperback for the first time The first special service forces of WWII were known as the Devil?s Brigade. Ferocious and stealthy combatants, they were handpicked U.S. and Canadian soldiers trained in mountaineering, airborne, and close-combat skills. They numbered more than 2,300 and saw action in the Aleutians, Italy, and the south of France. Co-written by a brigade member and a WWII combat pilot, the book explores the unit?s unique characteristics, including the men?s exemplary toughness and their ability to fight in any terrain against murderous opposition. It also profiles some of the unforgettable characters that comprised the near-mythical force.…

Robert H. Adleman (May 7, 1919 - November 16, 1995) was an American novelist and historian. Adleman was a photographer and tail gunner in the Army Air Corps during World War II, he became a businessman and a historian, and began a collaboration with U.S. Army Colonel George Walton to write books about World War II, the most successful of which was 1966's The Devil's Brigade. A story about the 1st Special Service Force nicknamed the "Devil's Brigade". Colonel George Walton was a lawyer and retired from the U.S. Air Force Reserve. He served with the Devil's Brigade in Italy. Derived from a Kirkus review: An energetic, highly readable account of the Allied military campaign in Italy which led to the occupation of Rome in 1944, with controversies revived, personalities rounded out, and great and terrible, frustrating, events reviewed. By the use of interviews, contemporary written material, and the authors' own commonsense perspective, both high level decisions and the situation of the harassed G.I. are investigated. Mark Clark, target of criticism for his "arrogance," his brashness, nonetheless in retrospect, is declared "unsophisticated. . . avid for publicity, (but) a commander who did everything that could have been done under the circumstances." The Goat of Anzio, General Lucas, under heavy attack since for his holding, rather than pursuing, tactic on the beachhead, performed reliably without contradicting directives. Lucas was not a Patton, and should not have been expected to wage that kind of campaign. The authors also soberly assess the rumors concerning Vatican politics, and accept the calmer view of Pope Pius as dedicated to the preservation of the Vatican, hardly favoring the Germans but realistically appraising the limitations of papal influence. A lively account of a remarkable collection of human beings under fire. A first rate reconstruction. Presumed first Bantam Edition, first printing.…
