  WW2 Invasions - Blitzkrieg...

  This book consists of three titles: 
  - Blitzkrieg: The outbreak of World War II in 1939 heralded the arrival of a new era in military strategy, characterized by speed, surprise, and relentless coordination. At the heart of this revolution was Blitzkrieg, or "lightning warfare," a doctrine developed and executed primarily by Nazi Germany. Blitzkrieg was a military strategy that sought to overcome the static, trench-based warfare that had defined World War I. The tactics were designed to strike quickly and decisively, bypassing traditional defenses and causing maximum disruption. Its goal was not just to win battles but to create a psychological shock, overwhelming the enemy with rapid, coordinated strikes before they could mount a defense. 
  - Operation Overlord: Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, stands as one of the most significant military operations in modern history. Known globally as D-Day, it marked the beginning of the end of Nazi occupation in Western Europe and paved the way for the eventual defeat of Adolf Hitler’s regime. The operation was not only a turning point in World War II but also in the broader scope of 20th-century history, reshaping the political, military, and cultural landscape of Europe. 
  - The Invasion of Italy: The invasion of Italy was one of the pivotal campaigns of World War II, playing a crucial role in the eventual Allied victory in Europe. Southern Europe, particularly Italy, was seen as a gateway for the Allies to weaken Nazi forces, divert their attention from the Eastern Front, and eventually push towards Germany. But the road to Italy was not a simple or straightforward one. It was a strategic decision shaped by both military considerations and political imperatives.

  The Lost Paratroopers of...

  The fateful days and weeks surrounding June 6th, 1944, have been extensively documented in histories of the Second World War, but less attention has been paid to the tremendous impact of these events on the populations nearby. The Lost Paratroopers of Normandy tells the inspiring yet heartbreaking story of ordinary people who did extraordinary things in defense of liberty and freedom. On D-Day, when transport planes dropped paratroopers from the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions hopelessly off-target into marshy waters in northwestern France, the 900 villagers of Graignes welcomed them with open arms. These villagers—predominantly women—provided food, gathered intelligence, and navigated the floods to retrieve the paratroopers' equipment at great risk to themselves. When the attack by German forces on June 11th forced the overwhelmed paratroopers to withdraw, many made it to safety thanks to the help and resistance of the villagers. In this moving book, historian Stephen G. Rabe, son of one of the paratroopers, meticulously documents the forgotten lives of those who participated in this integral part of D-Day history.

  Recounts the harrowing experiences of the 1-320th Field Artillery "Top Guns" Battalion as they navigated the challenges of serving as provisional infantrymen in the hostile Arghandab Valley during 2010-2011. 
   
   
   
  Sons of the Arghandab tells the story of the 1-320th Field Artillery "Top Guns" Battalion, 101st Airborne, in the Arghandab Valley, 2010-2011. 
   
   
   
  The Arghandab River Valley is known for its lush vegetation from its grape furrows and its pomegranate orchards. It's also known as the birthplace of several Taliban leaders such as Mullah Omar and Akhtar Mohammad Mansour, and was a major crossing route for weapons coming from Pakistan into Kandahar. This hostile environment had already claimed the lives of many seasoned infantrymen. But the Top Guns weren't infantrymen, they were artillerymen, deployed without their usual weapons and with minimal last-minute training, redesignated as "provisional infantrymen." Painstakingly researched by one of the Top Guns and told through the perspectives of the men who survived that terrible year, this is the harrowing story of Alpha, HHB, and Bravo Batteries as they undertook the challenges of an artillery unit charged with an infantry mission in the most hostile killing fields in Afghanistan.
