Memories of War: The Experiences of Red Army Veterans of the Great Patriotic War

This series contains the experiences of military veterans, men and women, officers, non-commissioned officers, and enlisted soldiers, sailors and airmen, and others who participated in this long and terrible war.  These are candid, unexpurgated, and lightly edited visions of war from the perspective of those who suffered most from it.  Individually and collectively, they stand as a monument to the will, endurance, and spirit of those who fought and survived.
