reviewed on + 15 more book reviews


The author did an outstanding job researching the various topics presented. More importantly he collected the thoughts and feelings of these veterans whose stories may have been told to family members and friends, but not the rest of the world. Their stories must be told! The atrocities these vets experienced clearly shows the perils of war for soldiers, prisoners as well as civilians. This book will also provide the reader a good picture of the cultural environment of Europe and America during the 1940s. Soldiers faced faced various forms of discrimination by the military command that will leave the younger generations speechless. I highly recommend this book for those readers who are interested in military history during the 1940s.
