About this product

Product Information

Honor can never be left behind. Sixty years ago, as Allied forces pushed across Europe, the Nazis launched a desperate, overwhelming attack that caught them unprepared, setting off what would become known as one of the bloodiest, most brutal battles in human history: the Battle of the Bulge. Then, more than half a century after the last shots of World War II were fired, a team of forensic scientists and relic hunters enlisted the aid of several veterans of the Bulge for one last mission: to return to the battle site and recover the lost remains of their brothers-in-arms, to ensure they would be buried with all the honors they deserve. Written by a member of the expedition, this is a story of loyalty and the bonds of war, a compelling scientific mystery, and a long-awaited homecoming for families who waited decades for the return of their loved ones. Also included is a CD/DVD with additional images from the expedition, as well as other supplemental materials. CD-ROM INCLUDES: Slideshow image collection of the search for missing soldiers from the Battle of the Bulge, including recovered artifacts, wartime photos, and profiles of the missing soldiers.

Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!

    History CSI style, Fantastic

    If you have ever studied the soldiers, sailors, battles, or times of World War II, you will find this book a great read. Thousands of soldiers died, and many were left where they fell by comrades who were forces to leave them behind due to the necessity of war. This book tells the story of aged veterans, family members, history buffs, and the author, persistently looking for and finding lost soldiers who fell during the Battle of the Bulge. For a first time author Bill Warnick's style is impressive with words flowing together like a waterfall cascading over a cliff. "Two hours before daylight, the two machine gunners witnessed a peculiar and dazzling sight. Flashes of light twinkled on the horizon, well inside German territory. Within seconds the curious onlookers understood the meaning. ...

    CSI and the Battle of the Bulge come together

    Fascinating story about the search for members of the 99th Infantry Division who were still "missing in action" 50 years after their deaths in the Battle of the Bulge. The book recounts how amateur Belgian souvenir hunters joined US historians and 99'er veterans to identify and excavate probable sites. The book shifts between the modern-day search and narratives from the war. It is exciting but often emotional reading, as the remains of these brave men are finally laid to rest in marked graves. Would have liked a list of those "still missing" for whom the group continues to search.

    Finding U.S. soldiers killed in the Battle of the Bulge

    Recounts efforts of a volunteer team to locate, identify, and recover the remains of U.S. soldiers killed in the Battle of the Bulge, Germany’s last-ditch offensive against Allied forces in Belgium in December 1944. Describes excavations in the 1980s and 1990s and includes personal accounts of servicemen. As with all of my reviews, I had the book read to me because my eyes could not hold out.
