An Uncommon Man - Elson Buck See (Paperback)

From humble beginnings on a small farm in West Virginia to the horror of the battlefields of World War II, Elson "Buck" See embarked on a journey that few men have ever traveled. The trials he experienced and the people he met along the way tell a story of tragedy and triumph that will appeal to past and future generations. Buck See faces grave danger while meeting and fighting alongside and against some of the most famous figures in World War II, from General George S. Patton to Field Marshall Hermann Goering.

Through all the trials, Buck never forgets his humble roots. Born in the 1920s and raised through the Great Depression, his large country family survived through the sweat of their brow and faith in the Lord and each other. The lessons Buck learned in his childhood carried him through crippling illness, the strain of training, and the unspeakable carnage of war.
