The Devil's Brigade (Paperback, New edition)

* The daring exploits of the first special forces unit of WWII *World War II tale of adventure *Available in paperback for the first time The first special service forces of WWII were known as the Devil's Brigade. Ferocious and stealthy combatants, they were handpicked U.S. and Canadian soldiers trained in mountaineering, airborne, and close-combat skills. They numbered more than 2,300 and saw action in the Aleutians, Italy, and the south of France. Co-written by a brigade member and a WWII combat pilot, the book explores the unit's unique characteristics, including the men's exemplary toughness and their ability to fight in any terrain against murderous opposition. It also profiles some of the unforgettable characters that comprised the near-mythical force.
