World War 2 Soldier Stories Part Ix

Behind enemy lines is a harrowing place to be. Few survive and those that do may never be the same again. World War II was no gentleman's war. There was brutality all around and death may have been a welcomed alternative to captivity. Rescue or survival was wanted even more though. There are stories of those that have been caught behind the enemies lines. They are cut off from their allies. Alone. Desperate. These are just a few of those stories. Ask yourself, what would you do to survive? What lengths would you go to in order to make it out alive? This book explores what some did when faced with that very real question. Germany was determined to crush Yugoslavia when it broke ties with them and aligned themselves with the Allied Forces. When a British envoy arrived to meet if Yugoslavian leaders, they find themselves running for their lives as the Germans close in. What was to be a diplomatic mission, soon turns into a nightmare. Will they all make it home alive? The Special Air Service is one of the most elite units in the British military. These men come from all corners of the United Kingdom and are some of the best out there. What happens when an already beleaguered unit finds it's self behind enemy lines and betrayed by possibly one of their own? This is another action packed book on the men that fought, and sometimes died, in World War II. They sacrificed their lives for the freedom of not only others but their own countries as well. Some of their stories are forever immortalized here in these pages.
