Publisher's Synopsis
Their passion was music. Their duty was to fight. Based on true events, REAR ECHELON is the story of a military band cut off and surrounded during the Battle of the Bulge in December, 1944. Rather than wave the white flag of surrender, these "rear echelon" soldiers put down their musical instruments, armed themselves, and fought to buy the beleaguered American army time to regroup and counter-attack.
