"Courage, sacrifice, and fear have lead Rio, Frangie, and Rainy through front-line battles in North Africa and Sicily, and their missions are not over. These soldiers and thousands of Allies must fight their deadliest battle yet--for their country and their lives--as they descend into the freezing water and onto the treacherous sands of Omaha Beach. It is June 6, 1944. D-Day has arrived. None of these women are the same naive recruits they were when the war started. They are now Silver Star recipients and battle-hardened... Others look to them for guidance and confidence, but this is a war that will leave sixty million dead. Flesh will turn to charcoal. Piles will be made of torn limbs. The women must find a way to lead ... while holding on to their own last shreds of belief in humanity"--Provided by publisher.
It is 1944, the sixth of June. D-Day. Rio, Frangie, and Rainy, all Silver Star recipients, have fought in North Africa and Sicily, and now they will need all that experience to survive Omaha Beach, the forests of H?rtgen, and the Eifel.
