Nearly finished ‘Death was our companion’ by Tony Le Tissier. Fascinating accounts / diary entries from ordinary soldiers in the final days of the Third Reich. Full of the trauma and horror as expected but also the concerns, gossip and minute detail that you only get in intimate accounts. Worth a read if WW2 is an interest and you want more than the macro view.
