Decisive Quote by Frank Antenori

“Every battle has a decisive point (place, time, event, or decision on the battlefield that led to victory), but our decisive point wasn’t on the battlefield. We didn’t know it, but it was at that point in time, on that cold, rainy, November night, that the battle at Debecka was won.” quote by Frank Antenori
