They were the dregs, the last manpower left to fight the closing days of World War II. They were the cast-offs of service commands, the Air Force rejects. They were the college boys the Army had hoarded until then in the Army Specialized Training Program, the 18-year-olds just old enough to be drafted, but not to buy a drink. With inadequate and hasty training these infantry replacements were rushed overseas to fill the gaps in the frontline left by unexpected casualties._____ For the Army, as usual, had miscalculated. The war had gone on longer than planned; new bodies were needed immediately._____ They learned quickly, and if they didn't, they became casualties themselves. And by their presence they brought the war in Europe to a close; they created a peace, they began a new world-a world bright with hope yet stained by the past. They were indeed all we had, and all they had, they gave. They emerged into a strange new world of rubble and ruin which surrounded them in the fretful peace which followed the end of the war._____ They were hardly a band of brothers, but for a little while they were comrades, and the memory of that time would be with them as long as they lived._____ This book is about the comradeship of men at war and the trials which followed, told in a series of related short stories by Carl Heintze, an infantry replacement himself.
