One of the finest case studies of modern infantry combat in any language.Dennis Showalter , author of Tannenburg: Clash of Empires "A gripping tale of American GIs facing combat under the worst imaginable conditions."Peter Mansoor , author of The GI Offensive in Europe: The Triumph of American Infantry Divisions, 19411945 "Convincingly challenges popular beliefs on motivation in battle. Professional soldiers simply cannot ignore the lessons of this provocative, benchmark study."Michael D. Doubler , author of Closing with the Enemy: How GIs Fought the War in Europe, 19441945 "One of the most original works on cohesion and small unit combat I've ever read. Turns the conventional wisdom about the American replacement system on its head and blows away twenty years of dubious and superficial writing by the so-called military reformers."-Robert L.

In an exhibition of brilliantly imaginative and thorough research, he examines the training, leadership, tactics, and replacement policies that permitted American infantry regiments to remain cohesive enough to keep gaining ground despite personnel losses that totaled sixty-four percent by the war's end. Cutting edge scholarship on the U.S. Army's war in the ETO."-- Journal of American History "Drawing upon veterans' anecdotes, diaries, and his own expertise, the author compares American and German training methods--with special attention paid to the much-maligned replacement system--and show how, despite terrible losses on both sides, the Americans were able to maintain unit integrity and to persevere. A provocative and solid case study of modern infantry combat."-- World War II History "Rush's exceptionally well-researched book shows exactly what this horrific experience did to the men of the U.S. 22d Infantry Regiment."-- Armchair General "An expert, detailed, and engaging study."-- History News Network, A heartbreaking, day-by-day accountbeautifully writtenof the small unit action in the forest.Army History Rush successfully marries combat analysis with social history to provide a new assessment of the American infantry units that battled the Wehrmacht from the beaches of Normandy to the Elbe River.
