True stories of World War II

In World War II, mighty political and technical forces were harnessed but, at the end of the day, victory was secured and defeat suffered by the soldiers on the ground. Gathered here are their own stories in their own words - eyewitness accounts of the experience of battle. The reality of war with its strange combination of tedium, tension and terror is vividly evoked from sniping duels in the ruins of Stalingrad to the bitter battles fought for specks in the Pacific Ocean.
