ISBN: 9780595492589 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. No one can match the special bravery and sacrifice of soldiers in combat.

This story is not intended as an inspirational book or a political statement. Instead, I write to describe some of the events...
