<p>Review\nIt is a must read for any tanker, and should be purchased by all libraries near an armored unit. ... Tanks for the Memories is mainly a story about how a unit really functions in wartime. -- Armor Magazine\nThe 712th Tank Battalion spent 11 months in combat, from Normandy to Czechoslovakia. This is their story, as told in the words of its veterans. -- Book Description\nFrom the Publisher\nSince its publication in 1994, "Tanks for the Memories" has attained cult status among veterans and current members of the armored forces. Yet these stories run the gamut of the human condition, and are appealing not only to veterans but to anyone to has a father or an uncle or a grandfather who rarely talks about his experiences during the war.\nFrom the Author\nWhen I first attended a reunion of the 712th Tank Battalion, hoping to find old army buddies of my father, I would stand around in the hospitality room and overhear stories that were so compelling, I thought, somebody ought to put these in a book. This, as it turns out, is that book.</p>
