E. B. "Sledgehammer" SLEDGE was born and grew up in Mobile. In late 1943 he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps. After basic training, he was sent to the Pacific Theater where he fought at Peleliu and Okinawa, two of the fiercest battles of WW II. Following the Japanese surrender, Sledge served in China as part of the occupation force. Upon his return home, he obtained a Ph.D. in biology and joined the faculty of Alabama College (later the University of Montevallo), where he taught until retirement. Sledge initially wrote about his war experiences to explain them to his family, but he was persuaded by his wife to seek publication. Sledge died on March 3, 2001.
Now the inspiration behind the HBO series THE PACIFIC. This was a brutish, primitive hatred, as characteristic of the horror of war in the Pacific as the palm trees and the islands...Landing on the beach at Peleliu in 1944 as twenty-year-old new recruit to the US Marines, Eugene Sledge can only try desperately to survive. At Peleliu and Okinawa - two of the fiercest and filthiest Pacific battles of WWII - he witnesses the dehumanising brutality displayed by both sides and the animal hatred that each soldier has for his enemy. During temporary lapses in the fighting, conditions on the islands mean that the Marines often can't wash, stay dry, dig latrines, or even find time to eat. Suffering from constant fear, fatigue, and filth, the struggle of simply living in a combat zone is utterly debilitating. Yet despite horrendous conditions Sledge finds time to keep notes that he would later turn into a book. Described as one of the finest memoirs to emerge from any war, With the Old Breed tells with compassion and honesty of the cruelty, bravery and deaths of the men he fought alongside, and of his own journey from patriotic innocence to batte-scarred veteran. Eugene Sledge became more than a legend with his memoir, With The Old Breed. He became a chronicler, a historian, a storyteller who turns the extremes of the war in the Pacific - the terror, the camaraderie, the banal and the extraordinary - into terms we mortals can grasp. - Tom Hanks.

评分公历2019年7月的某几个炎炎夏日,我舒适悠闲地坐在窗边,身边有喜欢的零食配着香气四溢的绿茶。窗外隐约响起的隆隆雷声和麻雀的叽啾声伴我跟着这本书进入一个早已远去的炮火纷飞的世界,在那个时代,整个世界都似乎在燃烧! 一直对有关战争的一切充满着浓厚的兴趣,记忆中很小...
评分 评分没有中译本怎么活!!!下学期是读第二十二条军规的节奏吗!!
评分“Marine Corps training taught us to kill efficiently and to try to survive. But it also taught us loyalty to each other—and love. ” Sledgehammer 画面感极强的记录着战争中的死亡和尸体,无论是敌方还是己方,战死还是误杀,“They died gloriously on the field of honor for the emperor”还是“If the country is good enough to live in, it's good enough to fight for”,他眼中的死亡没有一个是真正有价值的,这大概也是他眼中战争的样子。
