Frank Mathias was a Kentucky teenager when war swept him halfway around the world. He took part in the huge invasion force in the Battle of Manila, the deadliest single battle of the Pacific War. As a saxophonist and a machine gunner attached to the 37th infantry Division, Mathias saw World War II from the bottom of the heap, where young privates lived and died.
