總結:For those studying the twentieth-century German military, comradeship is a frequent and loaded term. In this innovative book, Thomas Kühne demonstrates that comradeship was one of the central organizing concepts for German society between 1914 and 1945, and remained important long afterward. The topic is huge: the book covers three quarters of a century. It was born out of a fascination with the social cohesion and solidarity of soldiers—comradeship—and complaints on the part of many veterans about its absence in individualistic modern society. The subject and findings of the book thus get to the heart of the perceived gulf between (combat) veterans and civilian society, a major social trope even today.
