Long Walk Through War: A Combat Doctor's Diary (Texas A&m University Military History Series, Band 4) - Hardcover

DR. KLAUS HUEBNER, who was born in Bavaria, Germany, twenty-five years before the outbreak of U.S.-Nazi hostilities, served as battalion surgeon to the U.S. 3d Battalion, 349th Infantry Regiment, 88th Infantry Division, from 1943-1945. After the war he went into general practice in North East, Maryland, from which he took occasional leave to pursue his interests in tropical medicine. In early 1986 he retired from the practice of medicine and, at the urging of an old army buddy, prepared his wartime diary for submission for publication.
