American troops played a critical role in the battle for Europe in World War II, and a great part of their success was their being welcomed in Great Britain to establish bases and supply centers in preparation for D-Day.As in all military history, however, there are always "the good, the bad, and the ugly" among the troops. In this latest fascinating and well-documented work, the author examines this behavior--the bad and the ugly--and explains why the punishment of U.S. offenders was not always a simple matter. He details cases ranging from drunken violence to theft, rape, and even murder by U.S. troops.These criminal acts were in the minority, to be sure, but as demonstrated in vigorous prose, there were enough incidents to cause considerable resentment by some British citizens of the wild and sometimes deadly confrontations recorded by British and American authorities.
