Hunting the Enemy Behind Their Lines at the Battle of the Bulge | John Charles George

John Charles George joined the Army in 1943 and began his training with the 82nd Airborne Division in Georgia. Following his training he would be reassigned to the 101st Airborne Division as a replacement for casualties the unit had suffered following the D-Day invasion.
John would make his first combat jump with the 101st out of a heavily damaged airplane and into the Netherlands as part of Operation Market Garden. He would then move with the 101st into Belgium, the bitter cold, and the fierce combat known as The Battle of the Bulge. During his combat service he would be awarded two Purple Hearts amongst his many other commendations.
In 2005, John Charles George published the book Death Cheaters, which recounts his experiences serving as a paratrooper during World War II.
