From the Dustbowl to Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest: The True Story of the 101st Airborne’s Most Legendary Squad of Combat Paratroopers, Killblane & McNiece.The Filthy13 were notorious, even within the ranks of the elite 101st. Never ones to salute an officer, or take a bath, the squad was known for its hard drinking and savage fighting skills. This book describes that group of hardscrabble guys whose saving grace was that they inflicted more damage on the Germans than on MPs, the English countryside and their own officers. 256 pages, 16 pages of B&W photographs, 6½”x 9″, hardcover.
