Papou had stories to tell that went unheard until his granddaughter decided to write this book. He was not a hero, he said. He was a boy. He didnÕt choose to fight this war. He was drafted. He was only 18, a recent high school graduate, a child, and somebodyÕs son. This boy survived landing on Omaha Beach with his friends falling all around him. But on the morning of October 7, 1944, he was almost fatally injured by a bomb that landed on his tent. He learned how to walk again, and chose to go straight back to the front lines - because he felt that was where he should be, with his buddies. He came back only to find that he was one of the few in his unit who remained. This is a story of WWII. ItÕs also a story of love, faith, courage and hope.This book is appropriate for elementary through high school and addresses the US History and Social Studies standard of The World and the US’ Place in it; Conflicts between and among countries and people, US World History Sequence.
