Reviews

[Avaris · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a cute little story that has all the action and friendship qualities you'd expect for a Young Adult novel written like the Hardy Boys. A bit predictable, but nothing too bad.

[Lynette Lark · Rating 4 out of 5]

What a great book of propaganda for young boys to read in 1942!

Dave and Freddy are BACK and this time they are fresh from five weeks of Commando training. Their job this time is to parachute into occupied France and kidnap two of the Nazi Generals.

We start off in New York, jaunt to Canada, and then England. In England, Freddy is super happy because he can order tea. Then it's off to France to round up some Nazis.

I think after this, they spent some time on the Russian Front?

Something I noticed when I read this is that in these books there are NO WOMEN CHARACTERS. None. The waiters are men. Everyone they speak to is men. But they never even talk to a hatcheck girl or a cocktail waitress in a Dolly Parton wig. There are just no women in their world. I guess because the boys who liked these yarns were not of an age to be interested in the femmes?
