Description:
Everyone likes a good story. And this is a really good story, about a young man from the Dakotas named Bill DePuy, who graduates from South Dakota State College in 1941 with an ROTC commission, just in time for the good war. Before the war ended, he had been an integral part of the transformation of a U.S. Army fighting division—the 90th—from one of the worst in the European Theater to perhaps its best. He trained with the division for over two years and helped take it to England and then Normandy as a young officer, where he watched it struggle in the hedgerows and waste hundreds of its soldiers at the hands of poor leaders. He then spent the rest of the 308 days the division fought ensuring that his part of the team fought well and no soldier was ever wasted. He started the war as a green lieutenant and finished it as the division G-3 and a lieutenant colonel, having commanded a battalion and earned the Distinguished Service Cross and three Silver Stars, all before his twenty-sixth birthday.
