O'Donnell, Patrick K.

Military historian Patrick K. O'Donnell has written an adventure story packed with action, suspense, intrigue, romance, and an unforgettable cast of characters. A small team of Americans parachuted into Italy behind enemy lines with the intent to link up with partisans and sabotage the well-guarded Brenner Pass which was the Nazi supply route through the Alps.

At the height of World War II, a small group of Jews who were American citizens, having themselves barely escaped the Nazi regime, did the unthinkable: they went back and took on a perilous covert mission to strike at the Third Reich behind enemy lines.

Patrick K. O'Donnell offers a detailed first-person account of the battle for Fallujah, recounting the experiences of the Marines serving in Lima Company's 1st Platoon.
