Es ist wahr! Nervös, schrecklich nervös war ich und bin ich noch; aber weshalb soll ich wahnsinnig sein? Mein Übel hatte meine Sinne nur geschärft, nicht zerstört oder abgestumpft. Vor allem war mein Gehörsinn außerordentlich empfindlich geworden. Ich hörte alle Dinge, die im Himmel und auf der Erde vor sich gingen, und auch vieles, was in der Hölle geschah. Wie könnte ich also wahnsinnig sein? Es war das Auge.

Fighting in the Great Crusade combines the terse clarity of George E. Schwend's World War II combat journals with Gregory Daddis's expert commentary on the greater context of that conflict. The result is the rare military work that counterpoints historical and strategic analysis against a foxhole-level view of the war in Europe as US soldiers experienced it. Schwend's story, which typifies that of young American citizen soldiers on whom the Allied cause depended, follows a draftee through the rigors of basic training and Officer Candidate School and into the grim theater of the European campaigns in 1944 and 1945. The accretion of detail forms a grittily realistic day-to-day account of military life, while Daddis's expansive historical backdrop invests with poignance even such routines as Schwend's faithful attendance at movie screenings as the soldier - and listeners - anticipate the fateful Normandy invasion.
