Thats the title of the book I began reading today, it is about the 7th Infantry Regiment from 1812 to WWII. It is volume two in this series I read the first one a year or so ago.
The 7th Infantry is one of the oldest regiments still serving in the Army today. I waited for this book to come out as I served with the scout platoon of 3/7 Inf as an M60 gunner when we rode on the backs of the old M151 jeep.
So far the book is great it starts out withe the battle of new Orleans.
