Jumpmaster AJ, sent this to me in a PM, and thought I'd share this part because it relates to an engineer book.

 

How is your battle coming along with the CIB? This is issue is still a sore spot with Combat Engineers even today! We are always moving ahead of the Infantry to clear the way for them and fighting as Infantry. It was and is a sad injustice that a combat badge was not created specifically for Engineers if not the CIB. A good book about the 307th EN BN (ABN) shows just how many attacks/assaults were led by Engineers with no recognition for it. The book is called: "I Maintain the Right". Good book, but it could have been edited better.
