Destination Berchtesgaden : The Story of the US Seventh Army In World War II

 

General Patch's Seventh Army is perhaps the least known of the US armies that fought their way accross Europe in the latter part of the Second World War. Among other achievements its rapid progress through Austria and southern Germany that prevented the establishment of Hitler's National Redoubt may have shortened the war by seven months and certainly reduced the casualties that would have been suffered. This book follows the army from its landings in Sicily in 1943 to the end of the war in 1945.
