Beyond the Call: Captain Seymour W. Terry at Zebra Hill, Okinawa, 1945 follows an Arkansas-born infantry officer through the brutal ridges of the Battle of Okinawa in World War Two, tracing how repeated one-man assaults against pillboxes and trenches turned a stalled attack into a hard-won victory.
