Harry Colenutt recants the dangers of crossing the
Atlantic were often as immediate as combat in Europe. Soldiers were at
the mercy of their machines more so then at the mercy of the enemy which
is shown when Colenutt describes troop transport ship on which he was
riding with 3,500 nearly capsized.
Colonutt casually describes the
randomness of war through how shelling were more aimed at general
locations then specific targets, and how the likeliness of death did not
often depend on training but the luck of the lottery as a soldier lived
day to day praying to be in the right place at the right time.
