New Book Chronicles WWII Ski Troops

The Cadillac News has an interesting review of The Boys of Winter: Life and Death in the U.S. Ski Troops During the Second World War by Charles J. Sanders. The book chronicles the 10th Mountain Division Infantry, a group of skiers turned soldiers who trained in the Rockies and fought the Germans in the mountains of Italy in 1945 and the reviewer interviews a local man about his experience.
