interesting

intriguing interesting story, a story of hardship and survival of a German officer during and after WW2. I was unable to stop listening as it was well written well.

Excellent.

The most interesting and engaging of this genre. I can only say... you'll enjoy it.

No Fox news, Germany goes to war....

One of the few books I have read from a German point of view so it was interesting. I think the 'soldier' was especially kind to his experience in hindsight. Obviously he was intelligent, awfully hard to believe he did not have a better understanding of what was really going on politically. If he is truthful, it should give pause to anyone on what a country is capable of when there is no free press to ask the hard questions and hold the political leaders accountable. Think about that the next time you see a politician being asked uncomfortable questions, irregardless of which side, politically, that you are on.

Let me know if this review was helpful!

Fine story, much detail.

Very nice story. So interesting to hear from the German side of WWII. The details Siegfried gives you are incredible, from the uniforms, terrain and emotions of his combat experience.

SOLDAT IS AN EXCELENT STORY

A very gripping story. It gave a vview from the other side of the war. I was actusally soory when the book ended.
