The Making of a Paratrooper: Airborne Training and Combat in World War II - Modern War Studies

The memoir of paratrooper Kurt Gabel - a German Jew who emigrated to the US in 1938, joined the 513th Regiment of the 17th Airborne Division, and fought against his former countrymen in the Battle of the Bulge. Gabel conveys with rare immediacy an in-depth look at the training of a paratrooper, the dangers of combat, and his transformation from romantic idealist to warrior.
