This is an excellent book and is illustrated with a few photos and also drawings done by another member of the US military. Chuck Holsinger arrived in the Philippines in 1945 as a G.I. in the fight to retake the Philippines from the Japanese. As he learned of the atrocities of the Japanese, he developed a hatred for the enemy. He gives vivid accounts of battles he fought in, and helps a non military person understand the stress of battle and the fears that our military experienced. He also tells stories of how Filipinos assisted the US Military with valuable intelligence gathering and in other ways. He includes how his personal faith in God supported him in the stress of battle. After the war, Chuck and his wife returned to the Philippines as missionaries. He found that he still hated the Japanese, until God enabled him to forgive them. He was given opportunities to share this message of forgiveness with Filipino Christians which helped set them free from their own hatred and bitterness toward the enemy. The lessons he shares many be helpful to individuals who struggle with hatred and bitterness toward those who have wronged them.
