Who is America's most decorated combat hero? You might think you know another name, but you'd be wrong. Discover the rest of the story in this exciting biography of a man whose achievements have been largely forgotten.

The greatest story you've never heard, meet Matt Urban, America's most decorated hero. The Nazis nicknamed him "The Ghost" for his uncanny ability to come back from life-threatening injuries time after time, always going back to the front lines for more. A modest man from humble beginnings, Matt Urban is the nation's prime example of a true hero.

Seeing combat action in Northern Africa, Sicily, Italy, France and on the road to Berlin, Matt's record of triumph over impossible odds is indisputable. He refused to back down. He refused to leave his fellow soldiers. When they tried to send him home from the combat hospitals, he fought his doctors and went back to the action, leading his men to victory...again and again and again.

It was a time when America boys, straight from the farms and factories, high schools and colleges, became seasoned warriors, fighting Hitler's best for liberty and freedom.

Experience the trials and tribulations from the actual battlefields of World War II.

Includes never-published photos from personal archives and previously untold recollections from the front lines.
