Alvin York’s Fellow Soldiers Get Belated Recognition

A new book tells the story of courage and heroism of 17 men during one of the final Allied offensives during World War I.
“This is the story of a patrol, men acting together for the common good in the face of horrible odds,” author James Carl Nelson said Feb. 25 during the Association of the U.S. Army’s Thought Leaders webinar. “It's a story of a triumph followed by tragedy followed once more by triumph—not individual, but collective.”
