German soldier on the eastern front

This journal gives a graphic description of the savage warfare between the Soviets and the Germans. It certainly rings true as I compare it to other books on this subject. This is the only book period, where this soldiers account of rounding up the Jews in the Ukraine by the SS squads and where just machined gunned down, men, women, and children. This soldier describes it in a matter of fact way although it seemed to be disagreeable to him(not enough to protest though). I am willing to bet that if he lived that after the war this would have been edited out. The book does leave the things up in the air as he apparently was killed sometime in 1944. For readers on this area of conflict the journal describes the battles and daily life on the front very well. Thanks Doc Rich
