- Summary:
- The building of the American Army during WW II from a tiny, outdated and ill-equipped force, into one of the mightiest armies in the world was rightly described by Sir Winston Churchill as being a "prodigy of o organization." By 1945 it led the world in weaponry, strategic mobility and logistic capabilities. US Army Handbook 1939-1945 traces this proud history and is fully illustrated with a varied and exciting selection of contemporary action photographs.
