The original Currahee

Donald Burgett wrote four books covering his experiences in A Company, 506 Regiment of the 101st in WWII. He jumped into Normandy and lasted throughout the war with the 506. His books were well received and are well written. The first one even had a word of praise from President Eisenhower on the jacket. He recently gained publishing rights from his old publishers and wants to republish them in print and also have them made ready for E books. However, seems he needs some help.

I don't know all the particulars as to why he doesn't have the money in his pocket.....but the guy did write some interesting books.
