This graphic, first-hand account with over 150 never-before-seen photographs, takes the reader on a virtual trip back to 1946 to visit the US military occupation in Germany, and to vicariously experience infantry basic training, a winter crossing of the stormy North Atlantic on a Victory Ship, and existence in the ruins and rubble of the most destructive war in history. It covers the unique, short-lived period between cessation of hostilities and long-term military occupation, and will be of particular interest to veterans, military historians, World War 2 buffs, and readers interested in ships, European trains, military radio, and life in the 1940's.
