Opis

Infantrymen is the emotional story of Ralph Gordon, a typical American GI serving in Germany during World War II. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Ralph enlisted in the U.S. Army at the age of eighteen so that he could do his part to defend his country and way of life. After eleven months of fighting in the European Theater of Operations, Ralph was one of only three men from his company to survive from D-Day through to the end of the war. Join Ralph and the men of Company "C" 18th Infantry 1st U.S. Division as they cross the English Channel to storm Omaha Beach and battle through the hedgerows during the breakout. Fight beside them as they make their way through France and Belgium on their way to Germany. Finally, share in the pain of the many losses suffered by Ralph and his friends.
