George Mullins takes us on his journey as he travels from his isolated home in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia to the beach in Normandy as part of the Allied invasion, then landing in a glider in the liberation of Holland, next came the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium, and on to the occupation of Germany. Mullins shares his thoughts as he fires his machine gun from freezing foxholes, sees the devastation of war, and develops deep friendships with comrades in arms. In these thoughts, observations, experiences, and fears; the day-to-day reality of war comes to life.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"Foxhole</em> is a captivating read. George Mullins' true experiences during WWII are described in such amazing detail that you literally feel you are there with him. You experience his anxiety and distress as he accepts the realities of war, while sharing his journey toward emotional and spiritual peace. If you are only going to read one book this year, this is the one." --Carolyn Fox, author of <em>Soul Rider: Facing Fear and Finding Redemption on a Harley </em></p><p><br></p><p>"George Mullins has given us an authentic, first-person account of his personal odyssey with the 101st Airborne Division during World War II. From Normandy to Holland, to Bastogne, and on to Berchtesgaden, he saw it all. A country boy from Virginia who was swept up into an epic war with a famous unit, he recounts the suffering and sorrow of war but seasons it with his endearing, humorous observations. Men like Mullins are the reason Tom Brokaw coined the phrase 'Greatest Generation' It's an honor to call George my friend." --Dan Herbster, Former Division Historian for the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) </p><p><br></p><p><em>"Foxhole</em> is a must read. If you ever wondered what it was like for the men who took up arms to defend freedom and change the course of the world, look no further. George's stories, descriptions, and depictions paint the picture of what life was like going through WWII. You'll laugh, be amazed, and most of all, feel proud of what was accomplished, it's nothing short of heroic, and Foxhole confirms the definition that we all use to describe these great men ... America's greatest generation." --Kathryn Edwards, Director at Best Defense Foundation </p><p><br></p><p>"George Mullins is one of the best examples of an American hero. His book is a treasure of military history to be enjoyed by those with military experience and others who just enjoy reading a good story." --Gary L. Brown, Brigadier General, U.S. Army (Retired) </p><p><br></p><p>"In his memoir, <em>Foxhole, </em> George K. Mullins offers a vivid account of going from a rural farm to fighting in WWII Europe. He recounts the small pleasures of drinking fresh milk during a lull in fighting, contrasted with being in a winter foxhole at night and the terror of seeing combat ghosts. His account evokes what it felt like to be a young man in prolonged combat. Truly, he earned his membership in what has been called the Greatest Generation." --Bill Johnson, author of <em>A Story Is a Promise</em> </p><p><br></p><p> </p><br>
