"A gripping story of a warrior's survival and ultimate victory
against all odds."General Norman Schwarzkopf

"From surviving Hitler's holocaust to his heroism in Vietnam to commander of all
U. S. Special Forceshis story is one of hope and honor."W. E. B. Griffin

Major General Sid Shachnow was ten-years old when he escaped the notorious
Kovno concentration camp in Nazi-occupied Lithuania. Later, he traveled to post-war
Germany and he earned a living as a courier for his mother's black market business.
His family eventually came to America where he struggled to get an education, held
down three jobs and courted the girl of his dreams whom he would marry and raise
four daughters.

Major General Shachnow began his career in the U.S. Army as a driver for various
officers in Europe, all of whom spotted potential in the young private and encouraged
him to become an officer. After nearly forty years of service to his country, Major
General Shachnow could look back on a career and a life with pride, sadness and a
sense of duty spawned from freedom, both lost and earned.

Major General Sid Shachnow is a Holocaust survivor who entered the U.S. military and became a highly decorated general and head of all U.S. Special Forces. He lives in Virginia.
