Corporal and later Feldwebel Hans Roth began keeping his diary in the spring of 1941, when the 299th Division, in which he fought, as part of the 6th Army, was preparing to attack the Soviet Union. In accordance with the plan for Operation Barbarossa, the division advanced south of the Pripyat Marshes during fierce battles. At the end of that year, Roth’s unit took part in closing the encirclement ring around Kiev, and later in fierce battles near Stalingrad, in the battles for Kharkov, Voronezh and Orel. Almost daily, the author described without embellishment everything he saw with his own eyes: bloody battles and brutal reprisals against the population in the occupied territories, the harsh life of soldiers and dreams of returning to civilian life. In 1944, Feldwebel Hans Roth went missing in the Vitebsk pocket, but three diaries describing the military actions in which he took part have survived. Only many years later, Roth's grandchildren discovered them and published their grandfather's notes.
