Shakespeare and a few other wise people defined it: War is hell. Those who have been there are unlikely to disagree. Many World War II servicemen found it such hell that for a long time afterwards they refused to talk about it, preferring to disregard that grim episode as having no relevance for the life ahead. Twenty, thirty, fifty years on, and time had modified this view for many of them. They had learned that memories last forever, stored in a mental databank, and knew that some of theirs held valuable detail. 208 pages with photos.
