voici la couverture du livre de don Malarkey.

Amazon US et Amazon UK offrent maintenant un bon prix quand on (pre)commande les 2 deux livres ensemble ($32.94 et £22.58 )
Moi je commande toujours chez Amazon UK, c'est plus rapide

Amazon US

Amazon UK

Mouai , plus rapide...peu etre ; mais vu la valeur tres basse du dollars actuellement , la, ya quand meme 7,91 euros d'economie en commandant aux U.s.
$32,94=21,55euros.
£22.58=29,46euros.

Ceci dis sur amazon.uk ya des livres a des prix tres interressant par rapport au site version americain ou Francais.
ya pas de fausses economie(s). Lol

Bsr,

Il semblerait que la sortie du livre de Don Malarkey soit repousse a juillet 2008 . (lol , surement pour laisser le temps de lire celui de Buck Compton).

court passage de certain chapitre, pour un p'tit visu

- The Choice -

Bastogne, Belgium
January 3 , 1945


One Shot .
That's all it would take, I figured , as I warmed my hands
around the campfire with a few other shivering soldiers.
One shot and this frozen hell of Belgium's Ardennes forest
would be over for me.
It was january 1945 , seven months since me and the guys
in the 101st Airborne's 506th Parachute infantry regiment
had jumed into that dark sky over Normandy.Now, a hand
Ful of us E company guys were numb from war,death,and
bitter cold and snow.In the flames' flickering light, I looked
down at my boots,wrapped in burlap bags and purposely
dipped in water so they'd freeze and keep my feet warmer.
One shot and those damn feet would never be cold again.
One shot and the sight of Joe Toye and Bill Guarnerelying

SKIP MUCK AND THE MARCH TO ATLANTA

Toccoa,Benning,Mackall and Bragg
November 1942 to September 1943


By November 1942, Easy Company was becoming a
Finely tuned company - even if, for the second time, I'd run
Into Eugene Brown,my old university of Oregon classmate,
And called him Eugene instead of showing him the proper
Respect as an officer.We'd done a 55 mile Friday-night
March through the Chattahoochee National forest where
You couldn't eat,drink,talk,or smoke;you just put your
Head down and went.It may have been the most difficult
Thing we did.But those were the things that drew us to-
gether,like we were one unit instead of hundred-plus guys.
We hadn't jumped yet, our practice limited to jumping
From thirty-foot towers in parachute harness suspended by
steel cables,but we were prepared to take on anything on the
Ground. So our west point Colonel,William Sink,decided to
Marching a hundred miles in seventy-two hours.

JUMPIMG INTO THE DARKNESS

June 5-6 , 1944
Normandy region of France



For what Easy company would later remember as
such an eventful time in our lives,It was an uneventful flight.
At first,We spent a couple of hours in the air,and somewhere
over the English channel, I awoke.In the distance,you could
see the wakes of hundreds of ships as our fleet headed
toward Normandy,The boys on those ships would get their
baptisms to war come sunup;ours would come a tad sooner.
When we were over Guernsey Island, we first noticed some
light enemy fire.Nothing serious.
Compton stood in the doorway and looked at me.He winked
and said loudly over the rattle of engines, " We're gonna throw
a scare into those Krauts tonight,Malark.".

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
Carentan june 7 - july 1944

Normandy,France,was beauty and the beast.THe sprinkling of land unspoiled by war was the beauty.we,the soldiers,were the beasts.I'd see miles and miles of fields and orchards that,in places,reminded me of spots I'd seen in Willamette Valley while hitchhiking from Astoria to Eugene back in Oregon.Then,suddenly,I'd see the remains of a horse splattered by artillery,the legs here,the head there.in some places, a breeze would bring the smell of grass and trees;in others,the rancid odor of death.Germans.AmericansCivilians.Animals.Whatever got in the way of war.One of the biggest problems we were having was taking care of our dead,getting them buried.Some of our Graves registration guys resorted to getting drunk to do their jobs.

Je ne vous conseille pas de les achetez sur Amazone france : Call of duty = 45,37€.

Petite question mais si je commande sur un site Anglais ou Américain, yà il quelque chose de particulier pour payer autrement qu'en Euros ou il suffit de valider l'achat pour que sa se fasse seul ?

bonsoir ,

Tu t'inscris sur le site americains , tu paiera en dollars.
anglais , tu paiera en livres(sterling).

apres ta banque fera la conversion en euros sur tes releves banquaire.

Re

Apres un check sur le site francais d'amazon
la version de Call of duty a 45,73euros , c'est le cd-audio.(attention).

le livre est 16,45euros

Cdlt

Merci pour les informations

Il me reste plus qu'à commander je vais prendre un dictionnaire anglais-francais en même temps sa m'aidera à comprendre.

Slt a tous,

.Call of duty "my life before,during and after B.o.B"
Buck Compton,

D'apres quelques critiques americaine que j'ai lu sur amazon.com concernant le livre Call of duty de Buck compton, il parlerai plus sur sa vie avant et apres guerre (en tant que juge) et que ses propos sur la easy Co et la 2eme guerre mondiale sont plutot bref et evasif.
Si c'est le cas , je pense que je vais le survoler rapidement quand je le recevrai , a moins que la curiositee l'emporte.
Sur ce, je vais me replonger et finir celui de Don Malarkey.
Bonne lecture a vous.
