Weekend read @MDParadis “The Light of Battle” — history is a great salve for those nursing wounds … “Eisenhower sensed he had violated one of the most important pieces of wisdom he had given his son in dealing with superior officers: “do not be too free with advise”

Replying to @MDParadis
@MDParadis Really enjoyed The Light of Battle. Learned a lot that I didn’t know about Eisenhower and the planning for D-Day. Last Mission to Tokyo was a banger also. Keep up the good work. 👍🏾

Just finished this excellent book by @MDParadis who I first heard on Netflix’s Turning Point. He offers perspective that reminds us no one deserves to be abused or dehumanized. I am grateful for his effort to write for a “nonspecialist audience” - which would be me :-)
