Description
Summary:The Allied servicemen in every theater spend an overwhelming majority of their time in what normally would be called everyday activities: eating, sleeping, resting, writing and receiving letters, trying somehow to snatch a few precious moments of enjoyment in the midst of the most titanic struggle the world had ever seen. For the fighting men of the Second World War, these all too brief interludes often became their most treasured war time experiences. -- from video introduction.
