Foot Soldier: A Combat Infantryman's War in EuropeThrough the prism of ultimate victory, the greatest generation that fought World War II has been seen as triumphant.

Through the prism of ultimate victory, the greatest generation that fought World War II has been seen as triumphant. But the brutal reality of the war as endured by combat infantrymen has remained little documented. In Foot Soldier, Roscoe C. Blunt provides an all-too-rare glimpse into the experience of fighting at the Allied front. Nineteen-year-old "Rockie" arrived on the continent in November 1944, when burnt-out U.S. vehicles still littered the beaches. His 84th Infantry Division fought at the Roer, through the Battle of the Bulge, and at the crossing of the Rhine all the way to the Elbe; he was briefly taken prisoner by an SS Panzer unit. Drawing upon his numerous letters home and the journals he scrawled in foxholes and tents, he has given us one of the most detailed, immediate accounts of the Second World War ever written, a memoir sure to take its place among the classics of war literature.

Men's Turtleneck Sweater
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
I really like this turtleneck sweater! The material is soft, warm, and feels high-quality without being too heavy. It has just the right amount of stretch, so it fits comfortably without feeling tight around the neck or sleeves. I’ve worn it both casually with jeans and dressed up — it looks great either way. I order another one in a different color.

I’m so happy Tissot came out with this movement!
Beautiful classic beauty! I love watches with internal components that far outperform the price. A certified chronometer for 1100$? Unheard of. From a Watchmaker like Tissot? I couldn’t buy it fast enough! It has great accuracy and a very durable time tested movement. I can’t wait to own this watch for the rest of my life! Tissot, just keep putting this movement in more watches and I’ll keep buying them. (Seamaster or Submariner competitor please!)
