Based on six years of research-drawing from interviews, primary documents, and visits to the battlefield-The Day of the Panzer transports the reader into the ranks of L Company, 15th Regiment, Third Infantry Division, and its supporting M4s of the 756th Tank Battalion as they grapple head-on with the Wehrmacht. On August 15, 1944, L Company hit the beaches in southern France, joined by the tank crews of 2nd Lt. Andrew Orient's 3rd Platoon, all veterans of Cassino. Despite logistical problems, the Third Division forged north through the Rhne River valley, L Company and its supporting tanks leading the regimental charge-until they faced a savage counterattack by the Germans and a rampaging Panther tank ... In this book, the minute-by-minute confusion, thrill, and desperation of WWII combat is placed under a microscope, as if the readers themselves were participants. "Through his well-wrought prose, Danby paints a detailed picture of deadly fighting and stunning victory" (WWII History).
