Anne Eiland was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, is a graduate of Baylor University and lived in various parts of the south before moving to Texas, where she was a teacher for 28 years. She now lives in Arizona, is a freelance writer and professional photographer, and enjoys speaking with groups around the country. Her interest in history has always been there, and this book presented the perect opportunity to share her father's personal accounts of one of the most historically significant events of the 20th Century. Anne and her father worked together on the manuscript for Chappie World War II Diary of a Combat Chaplain, and he left her with instructions to see that the books was completed after his death. Previous publications by Anne include magazine articles and stories for both adults and children.
From their initial, intense training, friendships were born and a special bonding of the unit began. Over the next three years that bond strengthen as these combat engineers found themselves supporting the troops on the front-lines of almost every major battle: from the shores of North Africa, across the countryside of Sicily, onto the beaches of Omaha, bridging the Rhine, fighting through the forest of Belgium and Germany, and moving into Czechoslovakia. Writing before, afterwards, and in the midst of battles, this army chaplain left us a compelling eye-witness account of the everyday joys, humor, and tragedies of these ordinary men who found themselves being thrust into the extraordinary situations on the battlefields of WWII.
