Comments From Other Readers ?Reading stories such as these are a reminder of how truly awesome the men and women that serve in the military are, no matter the country. I was amazed at the bravery and endurance of the men listed in these pages. If I were to have one complaint, it would be that there weren?t more stories. Perhaps a second volume is in order?? ? Joe B. (Bryson City, USA)

?I read this book around the time that the D-Day anniversary took place, and it felt like an especially poignant tribute to pay respect to the brave deeds that were committed during that time period. The author has compiled a fine collection of stories, and I know that there are more with which he can work in the future.? ? Lois H. (Lynchburg, USA)
