Synopsis
Combat Medic shares Corporal Vernon L. Parker's first-person account of World War II. Parker, like many other young men drafted in WWII, was transported from a simple, hard-working life in rural America in 1942 to a complex, stressful environment that would forever change his life. Nothing could have prepared him for the experiences he encountered as a combat medic and ambulance driver with the Third Army, led by Blood and Guts General George S. Patton, Jr. Parker was part of the D-Day invasion. After landing at Normandy, he spent more than ten months on the front lines, supporting the armored divisions through five major campaigns in France, Luxembourg, and Germany. A gifted storyteller, Parker presents a self-deprecating narrative filled with keen insights and colorful descriptions of day-to-day life with fellow infantrymen, officers, civilians, and enemy soldiers. As his saga unfolds, it describes the transformation of a naïve and cocky country boy into a battle-weary survivor struggling to maintain his dignity, compassion, and humanity. In Combat Medic, Parker demonstrates a startling recall of events from decades ago, including detailed descriptions of people, places, and even conversations indicating just how much of an impact those war years had on him., Combat Medic shares Corporal Vernon L.

- v***a (1812)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis was a BOOKLET, not a book. The info within was so generic that it was useless, absolutely no detailed instructions or ANY illustrations for procedure! Also, to take up space, it employed very large print. That said, the reps at Grand Eagle were terrific in their response and immediately issued a full refund. They are looking into it on their end in regard to the distributor they deal with. Would definitely buy here again, with careful scrutiny of the item details before doing so.
