Currently reading Storm of Steel again and I was also reading about Jünger in WW2 on Wikipedia (because looking up military members on Wikipedia and reading about them in war is something I do for fun). Anyway, there were quite a few highlights that I noticed such as open opposition to the Nazis, awarded an Iron Cross 2nd Class, discussing a peace proposal to send to the Allies with Rommel in 1944, and that his son was in the Kreigsmarine. His son was sent to the Penal Unit 999 and died in occupied Italy, although it was unknown if he was killed by the Axis or Allies. Anyway this was just something on my mind.
