With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa

With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa is a World War II memoir by Eugene Sledge, a United States Marine. Since its first publication in 1981, With the Old Breed has been recognized as one of the best first-hand accounts of combat in the Pacific during World War II. The memoir is based on notes Sledge
kept tucked away in a pocket-sized Bible he carried with him during battles.
