The General (1956) By Karlludwig Opitz
Translated from the German, Mein General, by Constantin Fitzgibbon.
General von Puckhammer had strong views concerning what a soldier should be, how he should act, and how he should be treated by his compatriots. His orderly and driver, Sergeant-major Horlacher, who joined him shortly before the Allied landings in Normandy in 1944, had equally strong views of an orderly-driver's responsibilities to his general, his general's daughter, and his general's well-being. This book is Horlacher's vision of his general in battle, in defeat, in prison as a war criminal, in postwar retirement, and on the eve of the creation of a new German army.
