'One of the best half-dozen personal accounts of the Normandy
campaign' - Richard Holmes Stuart Hills embarked his Sherman DD
tank on to an LCT at 6.45 a.m., Sunday 4 June 1944. He was 20 years
old, unblooded, fresh from a public-school background and Officer
Cadet training. He was going to war. Two days later, his tank sunk,
he and his crew landed from a rubber dinghy with just the clothes
they stood in. After that, the struggles through the Normandy
bocage in a replacement tank (of the non-swimming variety),
engaging the enemy in a constant round of close encounters, led to
a swift mastering of the art of tank warfare and remarkable
survival in the midst of carnage and destruction. His story of that
journey through hell to victory makes for compulsive reading.
