Drez takes us to the front lines of World War II. Through Drez's gripping narrative style, we meet twelve men, all ordinary soldiers, and learn what the war was like through their eyes, experiencing their own 'twenty-five yards of war.' The men in these pages represent all branches of the military who were sent on impossible missions, where they witnessed triumphs and tragedies. As a result of Drez's ten years of research and over 1,400 interviews, Twenty-Five Yards of War is a tribute to all of the soldiers who fought in World War II-those who walked away with amazing stories to tell, and those who did not make it home. ; Drawing on the recollections of twelve men, an oral history of the Second World War provides a soldier's view of combat in both the European and Pacific theaters, from the D-Day invasion at Normandy to being bombed by Japanese pilots over Midway ; Contents: The Halsey Doolittle raid, April 18, 1942 : Sgt.
