Happiness is a Warm Foxhole by S Keith Kreitman

At the age of 19, S. Keith Kreitman was drafted into the Army and sent to the front lines as a combat medic in the European Theatre in the final days of World War I. He was thrust into the final, brutal battles with Allied troops as they broke through the German lines and ended the war in Europe, and stationed in Heidelberg as the occupation began. Highly decorated for courage under fire, he never considered himself a hero, but a citizen-soldier who held no illusions about war. The gritty realistic account of combat is balanced with the touching human and occasionally humorous accounts of the experience of military service, war and the aftermath.
