Those Devils In Baggy Pants

"The glory and shame of war, vividly portrayed..." This gripping account follows Ross Carter and his elite paratrooper unit through the brutal "suicide stands" of World War II, from their first jumps in Africa to the harrowing Battle of the Bulge. Facing impossible odds, these twelve men—a diverse cross-section of society, from senators' sons to ex-convicts—forged an unbreakable comradeship. Their unvarnished story reveals ordinary men capable of extraordinary heroism amidst the brutal realities of combat: violence, drunkenness, quarrels, and the relentless fight for survival. It's a tale of breathtaking suspense and inspiring gallantry.
