The Story of a Soldier is the moving account of Edward Mehosky, the author’s father and an extraordinary man who lived through the Great Depression and three historic wars. During his three decades in the military, he served with distinction in the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment with the 101st Airborne Division. As a leader of men, he guided his platoon through all phases of military life: training; soldiering; representing their country. On D-Day, this focused and determined man led the way into a high-risk night drop onto Normandy. When that battle was fought and won, Mehosky continued to serve and lead, acting with honor as company commander at Bastogne and the Battle of the Bulge. Adding further to Mehosky’s heroic life was his role as a volunteer in the Korean War, where he commanded a rifle company and, through yet another act of unparalleled bravery, brought honor to himself, his country and his family. The Story of a Soldier is more than a narration of bravery. It is a reminder of our capacity to lead, protect and serve.
