The Winter Army: The World War II Odyssey of the 10th Mountain Division, America's Elite Alpine Warriors"Compelling and readable . . . I had serious trouble putting this book down." John C.

"Compelling and readable . . . I had serious trouble putting this book down."--John C. McManus, author of Fire and Fortitude and The Dead and Those About to Die The epic story of the US Army's 10th Mountain Division, whose elite soldiers broke the last line of German defenses in Italy's mountains in 1945, spearheading the Allied advance to the Alps and final victory At the start of World War II, the US Army had two cavalry divisions--and no mountain troops. The German Wehrmacht, in contrast, had many well-trained and battle-hardened mountain divisions, some of whom, by 1943, had blocked the Allied advance in the Italian campaign. Starting from scratch, the US Army developed a unique military fighting force, the 10th Mountain Division, drawn from the ranks of civilian skiers, mountaineers, and others with outdoor experience. The resulting mix of Ivy League students, park rangers, Olympic skiers, and European refugees formed the first specialized alpine fighting force in US history. By the time they deployed to Italy at the beginning of 1945, this ragtag group had coalesced into a tight-knit unit. In the months that followed, at a terrible cost, they spearheaded the Allied drive in Italy to final victory. Ranging from the ski slopes of Colorado to the towering cliffs of the Italian Alps, The Winter Army is a saga of an unlikely band of soldiers forged in the heat of combat into a brotherhood whose legacy lives on in American mountain fighters to this day.Binding Type: Paperback

Expected a better smell
Scent: Sweet Tobacco, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I picked up the Sweet Tobacco scent and was honestly expecting something a little richer and smoother. The smell isn’t terrible, but it’s not good either, and it’s definitely not what I had in mind. It comes across a bit more artificial and lighter than a true “sweet tobacco” scent.
As far as performance goes, the oil itself does its job. It softens my beard and keeps it manageable without feeling greasy, which I appreciate. I just wish the scent matched the quality of how it works.
Overall, it’s decent if you’re just looking for a basic beard oil, but if scent is a big factor for you, this one might be a bit disappointing.

Quality Sandalwood scent, just not the same formula as before
Scent: Sandalwood, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love the quality of sandalwood in this product, it smells terrific. It’s also potent and projects to where people around you can smell it on you. Although I love this product, I just recently bought this again and I’m starting to think it’s not the same formula that I got from before. Not as strong. This is better than the Everyman Jack product however and much higher quality sandalwood, I just wish that I can get the same formula from when I first purchased this it was super rich and wanted a full size bottle of this stuff.

More of a travel kit
Size: 4 Piece Set
I love this stuff. Smells great makes my beard soft and my skin not itchy/flaky. The beard Shave loom is by far the best shaving cream loop that i've ever used. These bottles are Really small and would work really well as a travel kit. But Jack black's products are fantastit's . just do it. stop, what are you waiting for.
