Very interesting and well written account of a young WW II tank crew member during the US Army's push into Germany following the Battle of the Bulge. Unlike some personal; histories written the author doesn't delve into a lot of background info using just enough to let you understand what's going on in his young mind. A short book (176 pages) makes for a quick read.
