Kurt Frank Korf's story is one of the most unusual to come out of World War II. Although German-Americans were America's largest ethnic group, and German-Americans-- including thousands of native-born Germans-- fought bravely in all theaters, there are few full first-person accounts by German-Americans of their experiences during the 1930s and 1940s.

Soon after, he enlisted in the U.S. Army, serving in Germany as an intelligence officer during the Battle of the Bulge, and as a prisoner of war camp administrator.
