The inspiring true story of General Lucian Truscott, one of
the greatest combat commanders of World War II.
General Lucian K. Truscott was an American military giant: tough,
resourceful, and devoted to the men under his command. Unlike the
more flamboyant high-ranking European field commanders of the time,
he was neither arrogant nor in pursuit of personal glory-but rather
a loyal, humble man who led his troops from the front and fought
every enemy with a tenacity that made him one of the most respected
and revered commanders in the U.S. Army.
In Command of Honor, author H. Paul Jeffers chronicles the life
of this American hero. For the first time, the life of Truscott is
revealed: his ramshackle childhood in Texas and Oklahoma, his
extraordinary combat service, and his peacetime duties. But above
all, this is a story of leadership and sacrifice by a man who lived
for duty, honor, and courage-a man who would become a legend in the
annals of U.S. Army history.
