Harr describes that, after enduring and surviving battle , struggle and life threatening battle after skirmish after mission after battle after raw blood combat - when the end came, it just sat ther in silence. No whoop-up, no celebration, just the silence of no more gun fire. In Munich, a subdued military parade was walked out, with one guy turning to Harr saying, "It's hard to believe, but yesterday at this time we were fighting for our lives two blocks from here." This was WWII. This was Bill Harr's important, in the ditches and on the open fighting grounds, diary of that war. [B201]. …
