Summary "Dick Donnelly of the Paratroops" by Marshall McClintock is a historical novel written in the mid-20th century. The book explores the experiences of Sergeant Dick Donnelly and his fellow paratroopers during World War II, focusing on their operations in North Africa. As they confront the challenges of combat, the narrative delves into themes of camaraderie, bravery, and the complexities of warfare. At the start of the story, we are introduced to the paratrooper unit as they conduct a parachute jump into a seemingly enemy-held airfield in North Africa. Led by Lieutenant Jerry Scotti, the men face an unexpected turn of events—encountering little resistance and ultimately capturing the airfield without significant conflict. The opening reveals the personalities of the main characters, including the eager Sergeant Donnelly, who is keen to engage in action after weeks of waiting for combat. As the narrative unfolds, the groundwork is laid for their upcoming missions and the inevitable battles that await them in the theater of war. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
