About this ebook
“He stood alone, and during those few moments John felt the presence of malevolence together with a feeling of betrayal of all decent instincts within himself.”
This is the true story of a young man, not yet 18, going to fight a war he did not understand, fighting an unknown enemy and yet ready for the ultimate sacrifice if needed.
He followed where other men had trodden: fathers, brothers and friends alike, not knowing his destiny.
It is a tale of camaraderie, of laughter, of despair, of joy, of fear and unsung bravery from those least expected.
