Out of sight was truly out of mind. Indeed, for some men of Steinmetz’s platoon, the most vivid memory was that they were assigned guard duty in a swampy meadow north of Parczew, where they had to stand all day with wet feet.
Again, anything to get out of killing duty. But I wondered if they were any better than the ones that were eager to kill. (Yes, they were but given what they were part of, even unwillingly, it's still a difficult thing to accept)
