Corry: A D-Day Survivor's Stories About the Destroyer That Led the Normandy Invasion

Rating:
Summary: An eyewitness, blow-by-blow accounting
Review: Francis M. McKernon is a survivor of D-Day. Corry is his eyewitness, blow-by-blow accounting of the destroyer ship that led the Normandy shore invasion as told to Kevin McKernon. Destructive shelling eventually sank the USS Corry, and twenty-four crewmen lost their lives before the rest could be rescued. An intense saga of battle, death, and remembrances of the small touches and great friendships that transcend time and situation Corry is a welcome contribution to World War II European Theatre Military Studies reference collections and reading lists.
