Description
"Infantry Soldier describes the life of the men assigned to infantry rifle platoons during World War II. Few people realize the enormously disproportionate burden the men in these platoons carried: although only 6 percent of the U.S. Army in Europe, they suffered most of the casualties.". "George W. Neill served with a rifle platoon in the 99th Infantry Division. Now a journalist, he takes the reader into the foxholes to reveal how combat infantrymen lived and survived, what they thought, and how they fought."--BOOK JACKET.
