Description

He Charged AloneFrank Gaffney was a 33 year old papermaker from Western New York when America entered the Great War in 1917. While his age exempted him from serving in the military, Gaffney ran to the colors anyway. He fought bravely on Belgian and French battlefields as a U. S. Army soldier with the 27th Division's 108th Infantry Regiment. On September 29, 1918, Gaffney singlehandedly breached a section of Germany's Hindenburg Line, coming away with 80 prisoners.

Frank Gaffney was a 33-year-old papermaker from Western New York when America entered the Great War in 1917. While his age exempted him from serving in the military, Gaffney ran to the colors anyway. He fought bravely on Belgian and French battlefields as a U.S. Army soldier with the 27th Division's 108th Infantry Regiment. On September 29, 1918, Gaffney singlehandedly breached a section of Germany's Hindenburg Line, coming away with 80 prisoners. Six grateful nations recognized his bravery, including his own. In June 1919, the United States awarded him the Medal of Honor. Years later, the 27th Division's commanding general, Maj. Gen. John F. O'Ryan, wrote of Gaffney, "Éno one man had performed more daring exploits and had exercised a bigger influence upon those about him by the gallantry of his conduct."

In He Charged Alone, John Strasburg chronicles the life of a First World War American soldier whose bravery was once compared to that of the legendary Sergeant Alvin York. To tell the story, the author weaves together GaffneyÕs personal correspondence with military/government records, newspaper accounts, and published unit histories. Nearly fifty illustrationsÑphotographs and mapsÑaugment the narrative.

Much of the book focuses on Gaffney's military service, heroism on the battlefield, and subsequent rehabilitation from a combat injury he received in the war's closing days, but not overlooked are Gaffney's upbringing and how he managed the burden that comes with being a Medal of Honor recipient. At its core, this book memorializes a true American hero from New York State who in life was admired by people across the country but in death has been nearly forgotten. In He Charged Alone, Frank Gaffney's legacy returns to the fore, where it belongs.

Size up for sure!
Size: 9 Toddler, Color: Matt Black
Bought these as a gift for my niece who wears a size 8 in toddlers. There is a note to size up from the seller but you may need to size up 3x. Ordered a 9 in the cozy jelly sandals, one size up as suggested & they were way too small. So I tried them on my other niece who is wearing a size 6 in toddlers & the 9 fit her perfect. She loved them & walked comfortably, she didn’t stomp as she usually does if the shoes are too heave or firm. & they have a nice sweet smell. I like that the Velcro straps adjust to fit her snug enough to hold her skinny foot in place. Definitely like the look, feel & quality. The sizing is really difficult to get right, I imaging depending on the style this may also differ.

So cute but runs very SMALL!
Size: 5 Toddler, Color: Brown/White, Size: 5 Toddler, Color: Brown/White
These are SO cute and smell so yummy however they run extremely SMALL! My daughter is a size 3.5-4c and j had read other reviews that they run small so I ordered her a size 5 thinking they’d fit perfect and they were still to small! Sending back and going to order a 6 instead in hopes that will fit because they are so cute and feel very comfy.

Disappointed
Size: 6 Toddler, Color: Pink/Glitter
Sandal is poorly designed. The sizing is completely inaccurate and the shoe fits awkwardly on the foot.
