Spearhead: An American Tank Gunner, a German Tank Gunner, and the World War II Encounter That Linked Them Forever

Spearhead: An American Tank Gunner, a German Tank Gunner, and the World War II Encounter That Linked Them Forever

Adam Makos
4.6/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
From the bestselling author of

A Higher Call

comes the untold story of a World War II tank squadron fighting from Normandy to the Rhine, where a humble gunner would meet destiny in an iconic duel.


Clarence Schmoyer began the war as a gentle giant, a factory worker from Pennsylvania coal country reluctant to unleash the power of the Sherman tank he crewed. But as his tank platoon fought its way from Normandy to the Rhine and beyond, and he watched his friends cut down one by one, he learned to kill with deadly accuracy and efficiency. His fight would climax in Cologne, in the shadow of the great cathedral, where he took a shot immortalized by a chance photograph--and where he would later forge a friendship with the German tanker he tragically dueled soon after.
