The Battle of the Bulge: A Memoir

By Sheldon Zerden

I may be one of the few remaining veterans of World War II who can write a book which tells the story of the Battle of the Bulge, World War II, and the years of the Great Depression preceding it from personal, first hand experience. After my youth as a first-generation American in Brooklyn, NY, I was proud to serve as a combat medic with the First Infantry Division, the Big Red One. This personal memoir was written by a person who is actually unknown, and has not gained the fame of celebrity. My feeling is that self-esteem is reward enough for my accomplishments. A Purple Heart, The Bronze Star, and The Combat Medic Badge are my Tony, Emmy, and Oscar. Enjoy my story, both quintessential of the times and full of unique experiences, as I take you through my childhood during the Great Depression through my service to my country during World War II.
