For two
hours we fly westward from Anchorage, soaring high above a chain of
islands known as the Aleutians (see map). The year-long Aleutians Campaign began in June 1942 as a
diversionary measure by the Japanese to focus American attention away
from their main operation, the invasion of Midway Atoll. An Ordinary Soldier is the inspirational memoir of Charles William
Gebhardt, who served in the 7th Infantry Division of the 17th Infantry
Regiment, whose duties took them from the Aleutians to the Marshall
Islands to the Philippines. |
