Medic!: How I Fought World War II with Morphine, Sulfa, and Iodine SwabsLt. Gen. George S. Patton remarked that the "45th Infantry Division is one of the best, if not the best division that the American army has ever produced." Such praise, however, came at a steep price, for the 45th saw some of the fiercest fighting in the European campaign from Sicily to Anzio and from southern France to Germany and racked up one of the highest casualty rates.

Lt. Gen. George S. Patton remarked that the "45th Infantry Division is one of the best, if not the best division that the American army has ever produced." Such praise, however, came at a steep price, for the 45th saw some of the fiercest fighting in the European campaign--from Sicily to Anzio and from southern France to Germany--and racked up one of the highest casualty rates. Through it all, medic Robert "Doc Joe" Franklin--drafted in 1942 and thrust into combat with no specific training or knowledge for treating war wounds--soldiered on, fighting as hard to keep his men alive as the enemy fought to kill them. The story of his career as a frontline medic, one of the first memoirs written by an aid-man, is told here with simplicity, unflinching honesty, and grit.
Studded with memorable vignettes--of a friend who "smells" the Germans long before they appear, the dog that acts as an artillery spotter, the lieutenant who can't see beyond a few hundred feet--Franklin's memoir documents the almost unbearable drama of ground gained and lives lost, as well as the terrible human toll of battle on himself, his comrades, and civilians quite literally caught in the crossfire. A rare look at the fight for lives laid on the line, Medic brings to life the reality of war.

Good fit, good construction.
Style: CA12289
This filter was a good fit for my Corolla. It appears to be well made. The gasket is resilient and looks like it would seal well, preventing any leakage past the filter. Construction was good, with no holes or gaps in the filter paper itself. Unfortunately, the buyer usually has no way to judge the performance of an air filter, and I'm no exception, so I can't say how effective it is in actually removing dirt from the air going into the engine. But I would buy this filter again.

Easy to install and great quality—perfect for my 2018 Civic
Size: 2.0L
I bought this for my 2018 Honda Civic, and it fits perfectly. It only takes a few minutes to install with just a few clips, and the process is simple. I am a woman and do it myself with no issues at all. The filter feels sturdy and well made. The thickness and overall quality are excellent. I’ve seen people mention “ease of cleaning,” but I don’t clean mine. I just remove, vacuum the area and replace it when needed. That might be a bit much, but it’s affordable and straightforward. I can’t say exactly how much it improves airflow or fuel mileage, but I consistently get over 40 miles per gallon in economy mode, so it’s clearly performing well. Overall, it’s a great product if you like handling basic car maintenance on your own.

The engine filter was really affordable it cost less then $15. I bought this filter because it was recommended from a family friend. It fitted my honda civic perfectly. Replacing the filter was so easy to replace. Replacing or changing the filter was easy it only took a few mins to do. The quality of the filter is really good and it feels like its perfect for my car. I would buy this filter over and over again thats how great it is.
