Fantastic true story of a Tank Gunner in World War 2. Just a teenager,he wanted to eradicate Hitler himself. Written in a great story form, conveying many exciting, harrowing memories, not the least was the death of his best friend. It is also funny, as this kid/Private, makes many blunders, once arresting a whole house of German officers and soldiers who were going to surrender anyway, to the chagrin of his officer, who then had to feed and house them. Really a great book written from the perspective of a wet behind the ears teenager.
