At 1:30 a.m.  he says  \"the night sky was lacerated with streams of tracers from ground fire  groping for our C-47 lumbering 300 feet overhead.\" Everyone was jumping as the aircraft flew over the Drop Zone  toward the invasion beaches. As the last five men stormed down the aisle of the planes passenger compartment  Sefton shouted the realization  \"Stop! Were over the ocean!\" No one  says the author  had the slightest intention of staying on that plane  and thus he jumped  regardless of what lay below. It Was My War is written with a simplicity and humor that transcends the horrors of war. A former copywriter for the McCann-Erickson advertising agency in Chicago  Seftons skill with the language conveys the gravity of the war around him coupled with mission responsibilities described from a very human perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45651560595509,"sku":"ByrdShop_0897451775","price":283.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780897451772.jpg?v=1781835693","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/it-was-my-war-ill-remember-it-the-way-i-want-to-9780897451772","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
