He stormed ashore in three big invasions, won a Silver Star, two Purple Hearts & two Presidential Citations all by the age of 17. A first-hand account of combat with the 25th Marine Combat Regiment of the 4th Marine Division in World War II. "A great book on Iwo Jima; the writer tells it straight, & it's very moving indeed. The closing part of the book is as gripping as the early part; & the requiem is tremendous. Of course, the in-between speaks for itself." - Joe Rosenthal, "The Associated Press Reporter who took the famous picture of the flag-raising on Iwo Jima." "Stayed up half the night; just couldn't put it down. Just to think, we had kids like this in this country. Then, no wonder WWII vets are a breed apart." - Ned McWearther, Gov., State of Tennessee. "What a great little book; made me feel I was there with this Marine each day. I have not run across anything like it before." - Prof. Ben Massenlink, U.S.C. at Pacific Palisades, California. "Never have read a book that made me feel as if I was right there in the hole in combat with the writer. You know that this is no Hollywood bull. All of the pictures are real also." - Prof. Charles W. Crawford, Memphis State University, Head History Department, Memphis, Tennessee. "A gripping day by day of real combat without all the words of some Wordsmith dressing it up. True & to the point." - Charles Henerson, Author, "Marine Sniper," 93 Con. Kills. "As a Marine Combat C.O. of Rifle Company in the same division as this writer, I must say he has put in words that anyone can understand & without bragging, but just like it was." - Don Ellis, Col. U.S.M.C., Retired, Avon Park, Florida.
