Merriam Press World War 2 Memoir Series. The Story of Sgt. William True, American Paratrooper in World War II. The true story of William True, a paratrooper who served with Co. F, 506th Parachute Inf. Regt., 101st Airborne Div., from training at Camp Toccoa, Georgia, through Normandy, Holland, Bastogne and the Battle of the Bulge, to Alsace and Berchtesgaden. Now that Easy Company of the 506th PIR has been made famous by "Band of Brothers," it is Fox Company's turn, and this is the story of the men of that "band of brothers" in a moving, memorable account. The title derives from True's jump into Normandy at 1:20 a.m. on June 6, 1944. Bill landed in a pasture next to a very placid and unconcerned cow. Bill spoke a friendly greeting to her, but received no response. Why not? Because the cow spoke French. 59 photos, illus., maps.
