Brokaw's biographies of the American men and women who lived through, fought in, and returned home from World War II is a loving snapshot of the people who shaped U.S. society in the second half of the 20th century. He does go somewhat astray when he gets into the "famous" vets, who became important in business or politics. The book would have been better served if he had stayed with the "ordinary people" aspect.
