George S. Patton was one of the most legendary U.S. Army Generals ever. His aggressive and hard-hitting battle tactics in WWII were highly effective, but required incredible bravery and sacrifice from the men who carried out his missions.
The Battles of George S. Patton’s Lowest Ranks gives readers an unparalleled view of WWII as experienced by the courageous, young soldiers of the US Army’s 95th Infantry Division. Much of the book, of course, focuses on the events surrounding the Battle of Metz, where the 95th Division strongly defended the city of Metz, France from repeated attacks by the German Army. It was in this battle that they earned the nickname, “The Iron Men of Metz”.
You’ll be amazed and inspired by the tales of the soldiers’ challenges, agonies, and victories!
