If I could give this book 4.5 stars I would. It starts out hard to read (for me anyway, because I struggle with no -fiction), but when you realize that the words are straight from him, it changes your whole perspective.
I pictured myself sitting at his knee, listening to old war stories. It bounces around a bit, as he tries to recall his memories, but the end of the book starts flow nicely.
Lots of wit and humor also dispersed throughout the book.
If you love WWII history, I highly suggest this first hand account of this brave soldier.
