Instead of seminary, 18-year-old Buffalo native Charles Palmeri enlists in the 42nd Infantry, Rainbow Division. With his squad, Charles fights his way through Germany, only to arrive at the gates of hell: Dachau concentration camp. The recipient of the Bronze Star and the Silver Star, 93-year-old Charles tells his readers what he saw and what he thought about what he saw in the final, dangerous, unforgettable days of World War II.
