Only the Best: The WWII Story of the 111th Ordnance Company (MM), U.S. Army

By Andrea Sutcliffe

This book tells the World War II story of the 111th Ordnance Company (MM) from the time it was federalized in Texas in November 1940 until late 1945. From a frigid winter in Canada to a hot summer in eastern Virginia, from pastoral West Wales to German fireworks in Normandy, and from a Paris celebration to war-torn Germany, the nearly 200 young American men of the 111th did not ask for but received an all-expenses-paid tour of Europe that none would ever forget, but that few would ever talk about. In this book, the men at last tell their stories, illustrated by their own photographs. Now their children and grandchildren will finally learn what their fathers and grandfathers did in the war.
