| 18. "A Soldier's Story" by Omar Bradley. |
|
An autographed copy I inherited from my Dad.
My Dad also was able to get the book signed by General William Simpson, commander of the U.S. Ninth Army in Europe during WWII. This was during an interview my Dad conducted with the 92 year-old general just a few months before Simpson died in 1980.

I mentioned them in the same post. If that's a "comparison," then I guess so. |

I found all of Rebecca's anxieties really annoying right from the start. So I put it down and don't |
