About this product

Product Information

The remarkable memoir that inspired Band of Brothers ... Paratrooper David Kenyon Webster jumped into the chaos of occupied Europe on D-Day, fighting his way through Holland and finally capturing Hitler's Eagle's Nest. He was the only member of Easy Company to write down his experiences as soon as he came home from war. Webster records with visceral and sometimes brutal detail what it is like to take a bullet in the leg, to fight pitched battles capturing enemy towns, and to endure long periods of boredom punctuated by sudden moments of terror. But most of all, Parachute Infantry shows how a group of comrades entered the furnace of war and came out brothers.

Not worth buying.
David Webster comes across as quite a cowardly soldier. I understand now why Technical Sergeant Donald Malarkey had no time for him. Personally I regret buying this book.
