Description

Hell on Wheels is the detailed story of the 2d Armored Division. From the early evolution of armored doctrine, through extensive training maneuvers in the United States, and finally to the invasions of North Africa, Sicily and Europe, this path-breaking unit witnessed the development of armored warfare and became one of the most illustrious fighting divisions of World War II. Even more, Hell on Wheels is the story of the men who compiled this distinguished record. The heretofore untold incidents of individual heroism, humor, and tragedy now reveal the human element behind the famed reputation.
