Book excerpt: The acclaimed historian and WWII vet shares an authoritative account of two elite armored brigades and their heroic contributions on D-Day. When General Montgomery was given Allied command of the Normandy landings, he quickly gathered top military formations to execute the campaign’s most critical and risky operations. Foremost among them were two armored brigades: 4th (Black Desert Rats) and 8th (Red Fox's Mask). Both of these brigades had unrivaled fighting records whether in North Africa, Sicily or Italy. They had proven themselves in bitter fighting against Rommel's Afrika Korps and the Italians. Once ashore in Normandy the two superb brigades went on to enhance their reputations on the journey to the heartland of Hitler's Third Reich and final victory. In Mont’s Marauder’s, Patrick Delaforce shares a fast-moving and enthralling account of war at the sharp end.
