United States Army in World War II. With the publication of Riviera to the Rhine, the Center of Military History completes its series of operational histories treating the activities of the U.S. Army’s combat forces during World War II. This volume examines the least known of the major units in the European theater, General Jacob L. Devers’ 6th Army Group. Under General Devers’ leadership, two armies, the U.S. Seventh Army under General Alexander M. Patch and the First French Army led by General Jean de Lattre de Tassigny, landing on the Mediterranean coast near Marseille in August 1944, cleared the enemy out of southern France and then turned east and joined with army groups under Field Marshal Sir Bernard L. Montgomery and General Omar N. Bradley in the final assault on Germany. In detailing the campaign of these Riviera-based armies, the authors have concentrated on the operational level of war, paying special attention to the problems of joint, combined, and special operations and to the significant roles of logistics, intelligence, and personnel policies in these endeavors. They have also examined in detail deception efforts at the tactical and operational levels, deep battle penetrations, river-crossing efforts, combat in built-up areas, and tactical innovations at the combined arms level. Such concepts are of course very familiar to today’s military students, and the fact that this volume examines them in such detail makes this study especially valuable to younger officers and noncommissioned officers. In truth, the challenges faced by military commanders half a century ago were hardly unique. That is why I particularly urge today’s military students, who might well face some of these same problems in future combat, to study this campaign so that they might learn from their illustrious predecessors in the profession of arms. Harold W. Nelson, Brigadier General, USA, Chief of Military History.

Omar Nelson Bradley is a commemorative biography of one of America's great military leader. A product of the interwar Army, Bradley honed his leadership and warfighting skills during the 1920s and 1930s and then led America's Army through war and peace in the difficult decades of the 1940s and 1950s. Written in remembrance of the centennial anniversary of Bradley's birth (February 1983), this publication by Charles E. Kirkpatrick traces the young Bradley through the prewar period, follows his rapid transition to positions of greater authority during the war years, and concludes with his assumption of greater responsibilities in the changing postwar world. The biography gives us some valuable insights into the life of a truly legendary figure.
