  8. the Bedford Boys, One American Town's Ultimate D-Day Sacrifice. (Alex Kershaw) Members of Company A, 116th Regiment of the 29th Division. The first troops to land on the beaches of Normandy. 19 young men were killed, the highest per capita of any town in the US. In all 22 young men from Bedford were killed in the campaign. The book tells the story of these kids. A compelling read, especially when rereading about the first wave that was mowed down as they landed. https://www.amazon.com/Bedford-Boys-American-Ultimate-Sacrifice/dp/0306813556
