This was one of the responses I got in another group when I asked the same question.
Wasn’t Code Talker also a movie?
I’m not sure, sorry.
We were the lucky ones
Thanks for this recommendation, I just finished it and it was so moving. Cried my eyes out
Beneath a scarlet sky is also a good one.
@Mary thanks, I will give that one a try to! ☺️
Because of Romek
Have you read Winds of War by Herman Wouk? I truly loved this book & his follow up War & Remembrance.
The Hiding Place
THE GUERNSEY LITERARY AND POTATO PEEL SOCIETY by Mary Ann Shaffer – not a memoir by a good novel based in the period.
