Pages From a World War II Chaplain's Diary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781515363675)

Bronze Star recipient Captain Clarence E. Walstad served as a WWII Army Chaplain. This collection of letters home from the European Theater spans his entire tour of duty from April 1943 to September 1945. He served with several Hospital units, as the Staff Chaplain for an Allied POW camp in North Africa, and in combat with the 2nd Armored Division. These letters to his wife and children are poignant, affectionate, inspiring, and a testimony to the strength and sufficiency of his faith. Readers will delight in the slice-of-life detail in every letter, admire Capt. Walstad's moral compass, and laugh out loud more than once. Clarence Walstad's integrity, sense of honor and duty, and servant-leadership earned him well-deserved membership in that exclusive club, "The Greatest Generation."
