I originally read about Bob Slaughter in The Bedford Boys and when I saw this book for sale, I though it would be a good read. I was not disappointed.
Sgt. Slaughter was a prewar Guardsman in the prewar 116IR/29ID and assaulted Omaha Beach where he was a witness to the deaths of many of friends. He managed to remain with the 29th across Europe and was wounded several times.
The manuscript provides a history of the man and D Company of the 116th, both during the war and before. I found the book to be a quick read, as the author did not seem to get bogged down in needless details.
