Summary: An analytical view of command by a soldier doing his duty
Comment: Senger was a professed Hitler secptic . Whilst there must be much post war revisionism, his analysis and commentary (he has a section at the end on why germany could never have won, ie it is too small a nation)and the fact that it was first published in 1960, gives authenticity to his views.
He starts with a brief account of his not eventfull part in the 1940 western campaign and his role as liaison to the italians. His first "active combat role" was in charge of the 17th Panzer in the attempted relief of stalingrad and aftermath. He then has a liaison role in Sicily, evacuates Corisica/ Sardinia followed by cassino and the retreat up Italy. His narrative is not only descriptive but also has insightful sections on tatical and operational considerations.
highly recommended.

Summary: The most honest WWII German memoir
Comment: This is a book about how a just man fights an unjust war. General Frido Von Senger Und Etterlin details his triumphs, mistakes and thoughts in his very successful wartime career. In this books you will not find any of his ego, instead you will find the reflections of a bright, Christian man who did his best. He willingly tells of his failures as easily as his victories. This book is not only for the historian. It is for anyone who wants to understand what the mind and soul of a man endures as he undergoes long periods of trial. This often quoted book is a requirement for anyone who wants to understand the operational level of war while at the same time does not want to lose touch with the trenches. Don't pass this book up if you have the time to read it, you'll never put it done. It is a rare jewel known only to a precious few.
