WW2, the battle in the Pacific and the college football legends that gave their all to protect our freedoms. The fight on Okinawa and a football game during the war on an island that most of us have never heard of. Easy read compared to some that go into too much military strategy. They were just boys. 😢

Need something REAL after the last lovey-dovey read. I like reading books my dad reads and getting a better understanding of what my grandfathers and he experienced during WWII and Vietnam. Heartbreaking but important.

Did not live up to expectations. The author was too busy attempting to inject humor while describing horrific warfare.

Kboltz I must have missed the humor? We have no idea how they kept sane during such fighting….they were just boys. 😔 9mo
