"Tanks for the Memories" tells the stories, in their own words, of the veterans of one of America's most distinguished "small" units in World War II, the 712th Tank Battalion. From their beginnings in the throes of the Great Depression, to their days in the horse cavalry, to their training as tankers, to 11 months on the front lines in Europe, their stories are not only powerful reading, but show how ordinary men performed extraordinary feats of courage and heroism under the deadliest of conditions.
