It was mentioned as a phenomenal book about the Pacific theater of WWII, which is the setting for the miniseries, The Pacific.
And also, what's the, there's Eugene Sledge, his autobiography, there's With the Old Breed, and there's, oh, Helmet for My Pillow is the other one. And they kind of combined those for the Pacific, the HBO show, The Pacific. They had elements of both of those autobiographies, if memory serves.
Episode: Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Dec 7 2021
This book served as a large basis for the series The Pacific and was about a Marine involved in some of the most difficult battles in the Pacific theater during World War II.
I actually just read for the first time recently. I'd never actually read With the Old Breed, which was largely the basis for the series The Pacific.
And it's about a Marine who was at a couple of the nastiest battles in the Pacific theater in World War II. And it's haunting to even read it.
