Title: Great story. Too bad about the book...
Review: The story of the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops could be one of the most fascinating tales to come out of the European Theater. Unfortunately, anyone wishing a well-written, coherent history of this unit's exploits will have to wait until someone else writes one.Aside from the author's apparent lack of familiarity with World War II unit organizations and military terminilogy, especially German ("Battlegroupen"?), there are whole sections of this book that seem to be just collections of random paragraphs. There is little overall structure and a great deal of redundant text. In fact, were this not a published work, I would have assumed that what I was reading was a first draft.I find it hard to believe that a journalist of Mr. Kneece's experience could not do better than this and even harder to believe that Pelican Press was unable to provide an editor capable of working with him to produce the book that this should have been.
