Foot Soldier: A Combat Infantryman's War in EuropeThrough the prism of ultimate victory, the greatest generation that fought World War II has been seen as triumphant.

Through the prism of ultimate victory, the greatest generation that fought World War II has been seen as triumphant. But the brutal reality of the war as endured by combat infantrymen has remained little documented. In Foot Soldier, Roscoe C. Blunt provides an all-too-rare glimpse into the experience of fighting at the Allied front. Nineteen-year-old "Rockie" arrived on the continent in November 1944, when burnt-out U.S. vehicles still littered the beaches. His 84th Infantry Division fought at the Roer, through the Battle of the Bulge, and at the crossing of the Rhine all the way to the Elbe; he was briefly taken prisoner by an SS Panzer unit. Drawing upon his numerous letters home and the journals he scrawled in foxholes and tents, he has given us one of the most detailed, immediate accounts of the Second World War ever written, a memoir sure to take its place among the classics of war literature.

Great rubber balls to stuff with treats!
Color: Blue/Green, Size: 2 in
Fast shipping, packaged well, nice size dog balls for small dogs. Plus, non toxic for dogs. I use these balls to put different soft small treats all through the gaps. My dog loves it. It keeps my dog entertained and happy for awhile when I leave. Great balls to put treats in. 5*****

Un chewable
Color: Blue/Green, Size: 2 in
I have two grand dogs, actually three but one of them can chew most balls apart in a matter of a couple of hours I bought these balls. They’re great because the dogs can easily pick them up. They’re a little smaller for the smaller dog. I wish they made larger ones. I haven’t seen them anyway, but this dog cannot chew this apart at all, so I don’t have to worry that they’re eating any rubber or plastic. I highly recommend them.

Very sturdy chew toy
Color: Bacon
My Frenchy loves it! He’s not a large dog, but big for a French Bulldog. (32 lbs). He chews both ends, but prefers the snout. The eyes are cute, but began to peel off within the first week. I easily removed what was peeling. Half of the paint remained intact. When necessary, I will definitely replace it with the same toy.

Great chew toy, long lasting
Color: Bacon
This chew toy has been amazing. We have had it for 2 months with 2 dogs chewy on it and it is still going strong. We have a large Golden who chews on everything and and German Shepherd. Big dogs who chew aggressively. Very impressed! Would definitely buy again!
