Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A TRUE-LIFE STORY about a Canadian World War II Veteran, Artillery Soldier and hero who experienced MORE! MORE abuse by growing up in a household filled with PTSD, from a Stepfather who was a poisonous gas scarred World War I Veteran, MORE homelessness from running away from home at the tender age of 13 to escape the unpredictable parental abuse, MORE active duty than General George S. Patton, an American icon and 5 Star General, after Stormin Norman enlisted at the age of 16 and joined the famous North Nova Scotia Highlanders aka North Novas.Stormin Norman fought in 4 Major Battles against the Germans that forever changed the outcome of WWII and the face of history. He was seriously injured twice fighting the Nazis. Unbelievably, and against the discharging doctor's advice, upon leaving the hospital he re-enlisted to fight against the Japanese in the Jungles of Burma.This extended volume, known as the second edition, is required to address the popular questions which surround Stormin Norman's second and third re enlistments. After additional research, more blood, sweat and tears (not necessarily in that order) the Stormin Norman complete military story, from beginning to end, is finally uncovered. Here is Stormin Norman's inspiring inside story, the second edition, as told by his own proud Canadian son.
