1944 Stories

This book is a cinematic narrative nonfiction military biography of a World War II soldier. Built from military records, unit histories, photographs, family history, and historical research. *** In 1944, James W. Foster left the mountains of East Tennessee and entered a war unlike anything he had ever known. Serving as a half-track driver with Company C, 48th Armored Infantry Battalion, 7th Armored Division - the "Lucky Seventh" - James crossed into Europe and found himself in the middle of some of the fiercest fighting of World War II. From the battlefields of Northern France to the brutal fighting in Holland, the days grew colder, the fighting grew harder, and the men around him became more than soldiers. They became brothers. Then came December. As the German army launched its desperate offensive through the Ardennes, the 7th Armored Division was thrown into the fight. James and the men of Company C were sent toward Belgium, where snow-covered forests, artillery, armor, and infantry would collide in a battle for survival. For James, one day would change everything. The Last Track Out tells the true story of an ordinary American soldier caught in an extraordinary war - the places he went, the men he fought beside, and the experiences that followed him long after the guns fell silent. This is not the story of a famous general or a celebrated hero. It is the story of one soldier. James W. Foster. And this is how his war began.

Shot down over occupied France, an American pilot has one chance to survive - trust a stranger's daughter with his life. Feb 25, 1944. Operation Argument, what is later known as Big Week. A concentrated attack by the VIII Air Force on Luftwaffe production. Major Marc Suchet is a 24 year old fighter pilot. His job is to lead his squadron over ocupied Europe and Germany. He's the hardened combat vetran that holds his squadron together. Combat doesn't care how experienced or good you are. A chance hit, a crippled plane, and he finds himself in occupied France. He's alone with nothing but a pistol, a few French phrases, and no way home. He doesn't get far before he's found - not by the Germans, but by a farm girl with a pitchfork and no intention of turning him in. Colette Davout and her family are already risking everything for France. Hiding an American pilot makes the risks even more personal. But as days become weeks, French lessons by the fire become something neither of them expected - and the war that's supposed to keep them apart is the only reason they ever met at all. Getting Marc out of France will take forged papers, trains across France crawling with German patrols, and trusting complete strangers. Getting him home - safely, permanently, with Colette still a part of his life - is another matter entirely. Inspired by real Resistance escape lines and the true stories of Allied airmen who evaded with the help of the Resistance. Mustang in France is a story about the ordinary people who risked everything to save strangers and the kind of love that survives on nothing but a promise. Meticulously researched with accurate historical details. The raid actually happened on Feb 25, 1944. The checklist steps, the squadrons, the tactics, all the locations, the routes of travel are real. Even moon phases and sunrise/set times. French translations are at the end of each chapter.
