"Sadly, this was the last book in the series by Burgett. While I have thoroughly enjoyed reading a number of the other autobiographies of WWII troopers, the detail Burgett went into really took the telling of the experiences to a new level, and to a new level of respect from me. Without any unnecessary embellishment or overstated gory details, Burgett provides a glimpse into the horrors he experienced throughout the war; this time discussing the experience up to the end of the war. I would highly recommend this series for anyone who wishes to gain some level of understanding as to what the frontline soldiers witnessed and endured on a daily basis."
