Seventy years ago, on April 29, 1945, the forward battalions of
Rainbow Division, 42nd Infantry, were moving swiftly toward Munich.
Confident and optimistic, they had survived four months of costly
and bitter combat, and soon, it would all be over. But then the
road led to Dachau and the worst day of the war. In their collected
memoirs, the Rainbow soldiers, almost half of whom were only
eighteen, nineteen, or twenty years old, tell how they were
confronted suddenly-without preparation, without warning-by horrors
beyond human imagination. This book is by and about the American
liberators, who have since discovered that no one who was involved
in any capacity can ever be truly free of the past that was Dachau.
In the most complete eyewitness account ever available, editor Sam
Dann, himself a Rainbow soldier, weaves their stories together with
official reports, other documents, and the reminiscences of several
survivors.
