Finally!

My choice for an English language memoir would be Tigers in the Mud by Otto Carius. Well written, honest and without excess poetry (Sledge is too poetic to me). And no PC. There is one excellent memoir in English I'd heartly recommend but I have read it in Finnish so I don't know if it qualifies: Ja...

Seems that those of us who missed the hardcover edition for a reason or another (it is out of print) will get a second chance: http://www.amazon.com/Combat-History-Pa ... 612&sr=1-1
