From Greg Page, the bestselling author of Camel Red, comes Beyond Recognition, the inspiring true story of Lawrence J. Heron, the man who saved an entire infantry battalion at the cost of an all but guaranteed future in professional sports. Told through the eyes of his incredibly beautiful and devoted wife, it covers their lives from when they met as children in the idyllic company town of Hopedale, Massachusetts to the end of their incredible journey.Just as Heron received football scholarships to Notre Dame, and offers to play professional baseball for the Boston Braves and New York Yankees, war propelled him to the shores of France and into the heart of the Normandy Invasion. Ironically, his athletic prowess proved his undoing when, as the only man with the speed and endurance to carry it out, he volunteered for a suicide mission. Though he succeeded in saving upwards to a thousand comrades, a sniper's bullet exploded a mortar round in his hands and one at his feet. Barely surviving a gauntlet of horrors that left him blind as well as burdened with excruciating and unrelenting pain, he refused to die just so he could reunite with his wife.He not only survived but together they started a family, raised four lovely children, and he lived an active, eventful fifty more years of life.
