See the images. I recently acquired a nice collection of WWI to Vietnam era regimental histories that I\'ll be listing on this week.
This sale is for a book titled, \"MOUNT UP! THE HISTORY OF COMPANY C, 17TH ARMORED INFANTRY DIVISION, 12TH ARMORED DIVISION\".Controvich # 4820 and Dorbusch # 288.Printed by W.A. Stierlin Aalen/Wuertt, Germany, undated but early post-war, 8\" x 12\" 4to, 77pages.
A beautifully illustrated history of the unit, which arrived at Le Havre, France, November, 1944 and fought it\'s way across Europe and into Germany. The 12th Armored Division earned the nickname the Hellcat Division for their aggressive advance across southern Germany. Illustrations by Saller accompany the detailed narrative which includes casualty lists, chronology and a full roster of the company with home addresses. As the cover illustrations suggests, this unit was in half track vehicles. This company saw a lot of combat, suffering 41 killed in action, 119 wounded and fifteen missing or POWs. That is a lot for one company.Condition generally EX with edge and corner bumps to cover, back cover rubbed with removal of a former price sticker, soft corner bump top right that continues throughout the title, binding tight and holding well. This is a rare company level ETO history. !!! $5.00 shipping to help with priority postage, please.

I have been a full time dealer in militaria for over forty years. I specialize in American medals and decorations, as well as insignia and books. I also buy and sell better Boy Scout items and Civilian Conservation Corps material. offer with confidence - in forty plus years, I have had fewer than ten returned items for any reason. I have had over 12,000 transactions with only three returns.
NOTE: AS A SERVICE TO MY CUSTOMERS I OFTEN SEND MY ITEMS POSTPAID OR IF I DO CHARGE A FEE, IT IS ALWAYS BELOW THE ACTUAL COST OF POSTAGE. I FIND \"HANDLING FEES\" CHARGED BY SELLERS TO BE OBNOXIOUS. I NEVER CHARGE ANY FEE FOR PACKAGING. I am very good about getting my orders out promptly, sometimes same day and almost always within 24 hours. NO OVERSEAS SALES, U.S. ONLY. Sorry about that, but my airmail small packets are being stolen enroute to England and Belgium.
I will combine postage on multiple orders. PAY PAL is preferred, please. Thanks. George B. Harris, P.O. Box 1136, Alfred, NY 14802.
