The first volume of the World War II diaries of Nazi mortar gunner constantly pushed to the brink of death while fighting against Russia.   Following his Abitur (A-levels) in 1940, Hans Heinz Rehfeldt volunteered for Germany’s Panzer Arm but was trained on the heavy mortar and heavy MG with Grossdeutschland Division.   In 1941, he was on the Front fighting for the city of Tula, south of Moscow. Battling in freezing conditions without winter clothes, they resorted to using those taken from Soviet corpses. In 1942, his battalion fought near Oriel, suffered heavy losses, and disbanded. Ill with frostbitten legs, Rehfeldt was treated in hospital, and once recovered, was dispatched back to the Front.   Following various battles (Werch, Bolchov) his battalion again suffered heavy losses and it merged. In agony from severe frostbite to his legs, Rehfeldt defied the odds and astonished his surgeon when he walked again. He was promoted from Gunner to Trained Private Soldier in 1942, and to Corporal for bravery in the field in 1943. He was also awarded numerous honors, including the Wound Badge and the Infantry Assault Badge.   On 3 May 1945, he was captured by U.S. Forces and held as a POW for one month in a camp at Waschow before internment in Holstein where he was released in July 1945, after agreeing to work on the land.    Then, in December 1945, he put his past behind him and began studying for his future career: veterinary medicine.

Great first person account. While not an adventure a day type book. The book does have some crude author drawn maps. He does show the mundane side of war fare, as well as, the battle. While Guy Sajer’s book The Forgotten Soldier is probably one of the best reads, mortarmen trail the panzer grenadiers. If you notice the perspectives of both books are from 18 year old frontline soldiers. Too many readers think the Eastern Front War was one massive atrocity laden war, that all Germans committed. The reality of the situation from there perspectives is a little different. They billeted with the locals, most Ukrainians, and treated them indifferent most of the time. Most frontline troops are conscripts and young men, just as every country had and has.Yet I digress. The book does a great job on seeing the misery of the common soldier in warfare. The depredations the lack of food, cold, and dangers faced to stay well stocked with ammunition. A good read to glean more insight intro the life of a common foot soldier on the Eastern Front. A recommended read.
