Two Wars and One Love: Front-Line Soldiers Remember World War II through the Battle of the Bulge and the Korean Conflict

Two Wars and One Love: Front-Line Soldiers Remember World War II through the Battle of the Bulge and the Korean Conflict This is the story of Bob Moranda, citizen soldier, who fought with honor, courage, conviction, and valor during one of World War II's most critical campaigns-the Battle of the Bulge. Both his capture by the Germans and liberation by the Russians were perilous. This is also the story of Bob and his brother George, who both served in Korea. In the National Guard after WWII, they were called to active duty again. Not too many years after WWII, they had to adjust once more from civilian life to that of soldiers in training and combat. Bob writes of the joys and frustrations of the common soldier doing his duty. George adds historical perspective to the events recounted in the book. Together they provide a compelling narrative enhanced by the context of history.For those who want to know what actual combat is like, those who need inspiration to meet life's challenges, and for those who want to know more about the 'boys who saved democracy,' this is essential reading.
