Millions of soldiers lost their lives in World War II, many were never the same again due to physical and psychological injuries. This book lets those who were in the midst of it speak: former soldiers share their experiences and encounters at the front during World War II from different perspectives. Journalist Christian Huber, editor of the Press Week, has collected their accounts and compiled them for this book. The experiences described here preserve the memory of the victims of World War II, but they also serve as a reminder and warning for future generations.
