4.9/5 (34886 ratings)

Description:Harry J. Collins was an American Army general best known for his command of the 42nd Infantry Division (the Rainbow Division), which played a crucial role in blunting the German assault in the Battle of the Bulge and in the liberation of Dachau, and for his benevolent role in the occupation of Austria after the war. General Collins was an outstanding member of a remarkable group of American commanders who helped to win World War II; unlike some of the more flamboyant commanders, he is now largely forgotten. This book presents a biography of General Collins, with particular emphasis on his role in World War II and in the occupation of Austria. It is based on the reminiscences of those who knew him and—uniquely—includes excerpts from the general’s own notes that he kept throughout the war, and afterwards when he returned to Austria. Mike Chapman visited the general’s widow, Irene, in Salzburg several times, and she gave him the exclusive rights to the material in her husband’s diaries.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
