Seen through the photographs of an ordinary soldier, World War II unfolds in this fascinating collection of Glenn Kappelman's pictures and... stories. The book reveals a uniquely detailed glimpse of the period between February 1943 and December 1945 as Kappelman went from replacement soldier to gunner on the front lines with the 106th Cavalry Group. He took an unauthorized camera in his gas mask when he left for Europe and stashed the rolls of film he shot in ammunition boxes within his armored car during his tour of duty.
