Описание: August nineteen forty-four, Normandy, France. The Allied advance across Europe is dying, but not from German bullets. It's dying from an enemy no one expected: the supply lines can't keep up. While General Patton's Third Army races across the French countryside at thirty miles per day, his tanks are running out of fuel a hundred miles behind the front lines. Ammunition sits in depots while soldiers at the front ration their bullets. Food rots in trucks stuck in traffic jams that stretch for ten miles. This is the story of why Maple Leaf Up became the phrase every Allied commander wanted to hear crackling over their radio, and how a small group of Canadians solved a problem that was killing the Allied advance faster than any German counterattack.
