D-Day: Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen Tell about Normandy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732517226)

Title is part of a series of stand-alones; each book is independent of the others in content.

This book can be used as an introductory guide for people who know little about D-Day at Normandy in June 1944 and want to understand its background, purpose and the men who fought there.

It includes quotes from veterans who served and photos, many never-before-published (front and back covers contain these).

Stories are based on the author's interviews with 250 World War II veterans. Additional research was provided by her participation in a WWII tour of Europe that included standing on Omaha Beach and other related areas.

Army, Navy, Army Air Corps are recognized with a special story about a pilot shot down and captured by German forces. A tribute to chaplains is included, as well as a seaman who volunteered for a special project that made him a 'sitting duck' for the Nazis.

This book is the first in the World War II Insider series. Future books in the World War II Insider series will provide personal viewpoints at what it meant to be an American soldier in the war around the world.
