Black Tie & Soap. Hagerty's first move was to shrink several hundred tour applications down to a manageable sum. In justice to all, he announced blandly, the White House would accredit all comers, but only one man from each news medium (the wire services and TV networks were allowed two reporters and two photographers each) would be put aboard Pan American's jet-powered Boeing 707 chartered for the press.

After the breakout, Brookie was again peeved. Why didn't Ike let Monty take the bulk of the armies and finish off the Germans in the Ruhr? Instead, Ike insisted on forming up along the Rhineland, fighting wherever he found the enemy in force. The Battle of the Bulge...
