The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer

[Huib Versloot]

I have that book on the shelf for years already, but haven't read it yet, mainly because I read that some of it was made up and never happened. Perhaps I should read it anyway?

I can also highly recommend a book called "In deadly combat" by Gottlob Herbert Bidermann. It's about a German soldier in a PaK unit on the Eastern front. Interesting how much they could do with the "door knocker" and with the later heavier guns.
