Synopsis
In World War I, the 30th Infantry Division earned more Medals of Honor than any other American division. In World War II, it spent more consecutive days in combat than almost any other outfit. Recruited mainly from the Carolinas and Georgia and Tennessee, they were one of the hardest-fighting units the U.S. ever fielded in Europe., The combat record of the 30th Infantry Division in the European Theater in World War II led to it being named the "outstanding infantry division of the ETO" by Colonel S. L. A. Marshall, the US Army historian for the theater. The men of the 30th stood their ground and saved the Normandy breakout at Mortain; they were among the first to breach the Siegfried Line and penetrate Germany at Aachen; and they stopped Kampfgruppe Peiper cold, the tip of the spear of the German advance at the Battle of the Bulge. Recruited mainly from the Carolinas, Georgia, and Tennessee, they formed one of the hardest-fighting units the US ever fielded in Europe. Their US Army nickname was the "Old Hickory" Division. But after encountering them on the battlefield, the Germans themselves came to call them "Roosevelt's SS." By the end of World War II, the 30th Infantry Division had accumulated a remarkable list of battle honors. It spent 282 days in combat earning five battle stars in the Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe campaigns. Eight Presidential Unit Citations were awarded to subordinate units within the division, and six Old Hickory men earned Medals of Honor. More than 80 men earned Distinguished Service Crosses, the nation's second highest award for valor. This book is a combat chronicle of the division that takes the reader right to the heart of the fighting in the ETO as told through the voices of those who were there. Each chapter is meticulously researched and assembled with accurate timelines and afteraction reports. Many of the last remaining veterans of the 30th Division and attached units relate their remarkable experiences here for the first, and probably the last, time. Book jacket., ...read this book mainly for the perspective of the GIs who fought and bled to give the Old hickory Division its well earned reputation. In the words of former infantryman Jim Nolan "The 30th was topnotch". -- The Journal of America's Military Past In World War I, the 30th Infantry Division earned more Medals of Honor than any other American division. In World War II, it spent more consecutive days in combat than almost any other outfit. Recruited mainly from the Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee, they were one of the hardest-fighting units the U.S. ever fielded in Europe. What was it about these men that made them so indomitable? They were tough and resilient for a start, but this division had something else. They possessed intrinsic zeal to engage the enemy that often left their adversaries in awe. Their U.S. Army nickname was the "Old Hickory" Division. But after encountering them on the battlefield, the Germans themselves came to call them "Roosevelt's SS."This book is a combat chronicle of this illustrious division that takes the reader right to the heart of the fighting through the eyes of those who were actually there. It goes from the hedgerows of Normandy to the 30th's gallant stand against panzers at Mortain, to the brutal slugs around Aachen and the Westwall, and then to the Battle of the Bulge. Each chapter is meticulously researched and assembled with accurate timelines and after-action reports. The last remaining veterans of the 30th Division and attached units who saw the action firsthand relate their remarkable experiences here for the first, and probably the last time. This is precisely what military historians mean when they write about "fighting spirit."There have been only a few books written about the 30th Division and none contained direct interviews with the veterans. This work follows their story from Normandy to the final victory in Germany, packed with previously untold accounts from the survivors. These are the men whose incredible stories epitomize what it was to be a GI in one of the toughest divisions in WWII.
