Enjoyed all 14 hours or so of this. Fleeting memories and experiences forever now remembered and documented for all of eternity. Many thanks to all concerned. 👏

This no holds barred account is a veritable historical document. And yet,the one thing we learn from history, is that we never learn from history - as evidenced by this current century!

Was in 3/5 from 13-17, was great to hear about all the fine man that served before me and an honor to be apart of the same unit.

Absolutely incredible. I feel so heartbroken for these men, but so grateful for them too.

This was the first book I've ever truly read. I love this country very much regardless of whoever is controlling the ship.

I've read or audiobooked all the books by veterans portrayed in the series "the pacific". By far eugene sledges was my favorite and second would have to be islands of the damned by sgt r.v.burgin. but all 4 were very good.

I believe the Voice had this book in mind when he spared Prof. Sledge. When we send our young men out, these are examples of what they may do snd see. Now we know, from an educated mind, from a gentleman. We should use this to remember to respect The Flag. No more black stripes or play, or dragging it from an automobile.

two guys find a botanical garden and try and find some serenity and regain a measure of humanity after being put through the most terrible time imaginable and some officers think they aren't good enough to share the same woods as them. I think that is despicable. That's a terrible thing to take away from such a overwhelming and truly great book, but there it is. I almost wished he would have left that out, but i guess it speaks to the reality of the situation, it's an inspiring and brutally honest story nonetheless. If people want to know what their freedom costs they should listen to this. i feel nothing but respect and gratitude for Mr. Sledge

Sledgehammer, Thank you not only for your service and sacrifice but also for lifting the curtain that the ignorant like me might catch a glimpse of what was your reality. A brutal reality that was in sharp contrast to the propaganda driven fanfare that has tainted popular perception of what WW2 (or any war) might have been like. Your attention to historical campaign details and crisp descriptions of combat carnage take us to a horrifying place. We will be forever grateful for men like you that went there on our behalf and especially for those that never returned. "I guess it doesn't make any difference once a man has gone. Medals and speeches and victories are nothing to them anymore. They died and others lived and nobody knows why it is so. There's nothing we can do for the ones beneath the wooden crosses, except perhaps to pause and murmur, 'Thanks, pal.'" - Ernie Pyle (KIA Okinawa)
