Mein Uberlebenskampf im Zweiten Weltkrieg

Mein Überlebenskampf im Zweiten Weltkrieg was published by Wissenschaftsverlag Mainz, an imprint of the Verlagsgruppe Mainz based in Aachen, Germany. Released in the early 2000s, this work belongs to a genre of personal wartime memoirs written by ordinary German soldiers who participated in the campaigns of the Wehrmacht. These accounts typically emerged decades after the events to provide a bottom-up perspective on the experiences of the infantry, focusing on the tactical realities and the psychological toll of the conflict from the viewpoint of the individual soldier.

The authorship is attributed to Bernhard Weber, a veteran whose narrative chronicles the trajectory of his service through various fronts of the Second World War. The design and presentation of such memoirs by this publisher follow a standard academic or documentary aesthetic intended to appeal to students of history and military enthusiasts. These publications are generally regarded as contemporary primary source materials for personal history rather than literary works, and they are situated within the broader context of German post-war memorialization and the archival efforts to preserve the individual testimonies of the generation that fought in the war.
