Currahee

The book i read was Currahee by Donald, R. Burnett. Currahee was a 200 page book. the setting of the book is in world war 2. it is about the 101st airborne. the word "currahee" means "stand alone" and it was the chant they would say when they got to the top of a mountain. the training and combat this group of men went through together made them a family.all the men were paratroopers and they all were the first to land in normandy on d-day.there are many other books about the 101st airborne and there extraordinary efforts. i would recommend this book to someone who like history and world war 2.
