About the Book

On December 7, 1941, Glenn W. Fisher was a high school boy working in a drugstore three blocks from Mark Twain’s boyhood home. This book describes his journey to and from a muddy German beet field where green American troops with inoperable rifles attacked one of Hitler’s best SS Panzer Divisions. Along the way the author visited five countries, received a year of engineering training, had his first romance, and lost the sight of one eye in a training accident.
