A Local Boy Goes to War: Memories of World War II - Paperback

by Lawrence P. Titzler (Author)

We've all heard the stories of the great World War II heroes - Matt Louis Urban and Audie Murphy. What we haven't heard are the stories of the quieter efforts of the common soldiers who made it possible for those heroes to do their daring deeds, Lawrence Titzler's memoir fills this void. An intimate look at the WW II exploits of a popular educator. In a Greatest American Generation story, a young man seemingly destined to a parochial and mundane life in a Buffalo neighborhood shares his amazing experiences all over the world. Like so many, an ordinary person is called upon to do some extraordinary things and he answers the call."
