Jump into the Fight: The Complete, Unabridged History of Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, Volume I - Hardcover

Back in July of 1942, the Army began constituting at Camp Toccoa what would become one of its most famous units, the 506^th Parachute Infantry Regiment. Over the course of fourteen months, Company E of the 506^th, would train in Toccoa, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky, before heading to New York for embarkation and eventually, England. While this period of Easy's history has been written about before, it's never been done so in this level of granularity. Rich in details and peppered with insights directly from the Easy Company veterans, Jump into the Fight: Volume I places you in the ranks with the men as they ran up and down Mount Currahee, as they were violently buffeted by winds while making their qualifying jumps at Fort Benning, and as they bonded under the strict training methods of Captain Herbert Sobel.
