From there it fought its way with others to Tunis, up Italy, and from Normandy to the Elbe. The Division can rightly claim a record second to none in the annals of British arms, and every single man who served in the Division has a share in that proud claim.* This is a FINE ?Author signed and dedicated copy with minimal shelf wear.*
