During World War II, people grew up fast. Reginald Bowers, just 32 years old, but already a captain of a U.S. Navy Pacific Fleet submarine. Billy Cork, facing an uncertain justice system in Depression-era Wisconsin, only to be magically transformed into a battle-hardened leader of men in the tough First Marine Division. Unassuming Randy Westerholt, the 353rd Fighter Group ace, whose Vietnam Vet son would return to England half a century later and find a side to his late father he would never have imagined. Navy Lieutenant (j.g.) Jack Tarrant, son of a crusty Army general, abused as a young boy, who would grow up to fly his bomber into history in a game-changing naval battle, and Ralph Vitek, who would wage his own private war in the middle of the worst winter in Europe in 44 years ― and in so doing, accomplish his mission in ways he never could’ve dreamed. They’re stories of ordinary Americans, thrust by fate into an extraordinary time in our nation’s history. Like all who lived through that tumultuous epoch, they clung to their quiet hopes, bore their own personal burdens and prayed for better times. But even as they yearned for a peace they could only dream about, they quietly prepared for battle… because their country was that important to them. Turn the page and get to know them. You’ll be ever so glad you did.
