The untold story of a US Army doctor who by a twist of fate found himself performing surgery

behind enemy lines and how he and a team of Darby's Rangers

 brought out a German Intelligence Officer who held the secret

to the German defense plans in Italy

                Follow the good doctor from Camp Blanding, Florida to Oran, in North Africa and then into Palermo, Sicily

across to Cassino back to Matuer, North Africa and then to Salerno for the invasion of the Italian mainland.

Major Benjamin G.P. Shafiroff,  MC

Fifth Army Field Surgeon is a stirring account of one US Army surgeon

through three major WW II campaigns. Notable is the treatment of a guerilla-like

operation to remove a wounded German intelligence officer from among swarming German combat troops in Italy.

The operation was long shrouded from view by security classification protocols. Col. Shafiroff was

surely a character member of Tom Brokaw's 'Greatest Generation."
