About This Book
A group of young American soldiers undergoes training and then faces the hazards of trench warfare, night patrols, raids, captures, escapes, and daring rescues during World War I. Episodes range from listening-post tensions and artillery bombardments to a burning mill, imprisonment behind enemy lines, perilous journeys, aerial encounters, and a climactic offensive that reunites comrades. The episodic narrative highlights team loyalty, quick thinking under fire, resourcefulness in rescue and escape, and the everyday hardships of frontline service while portraying small-unit action and steady patriotic courage that lead to a hard-won victory.
