Publisher's Synopsis

Children of Yesterday: The 24th Infantry Division in the Philippines, by Jan Valtin (the pseudonym of Richard Krebs) and first published in 1946, is the story of the U.S. Army's 24th Infantry Division during its deployment to the Philippines in 1944-45. The Division took part in fierce fighting on Mindanao, Leyte, Mindoro, Luzon, and Corregidor. Children of Yesterday portrays the horrors of the often close-quarters combat in graphic detail, while also accurately portraying the bravery and camaraderie of American troops, and remains one of the best accounts of the war in the Pacific from the perspective of the front-line infantryman.
