At 18, Pete enlisted in the U.S. Army and joined the 10th Mountain Division, soldiers who fought on skis in World War II. In the mountains of Italy, Pete encountered the mental and physical horrors of war. When he was severely wounded and sent home to recover, Pete worried that he might never ski again. But with perseverance and the help of other 10th Mountain ski soldiers, he took to the slopes again and fulfilled his boyhood dream--founding the famous ski resort in Vail, Colorado. 600 10 $a Seibert, Peter W. $v Juvenile literature. 610 10 $a United States. $b Mountain Division, 10th $b Mountain Division, 10th $v Juvenile literature. 610 10 $a United States. $b Army $x Ski troops $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Skis and skiing $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 941 $a 7 952 $l KHPB566 $d 20230126011439.0 952 $l UPAX334 $d 20230104040617.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211111010731.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20181127015726.0 952 $l KLPC566 $d 20181124011004.0 952 $l UUAX975 $d 20181009010125.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006121456.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2B2DD3D0C93111E88539171297128E48 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
