There must be a wide variety of non-combat roles during WWII. How did you go about finding the different types of jobs and organizing them for your book? Are there any non combat veteran roles that you were unable to find sources for or you would like to explore more?
My grandfather was a POW translator stationed in Nebraska and had lots of interesting stories (and ended up becoming lifelong friends with some of the prisoners)! It’s not a topic I have seen written about in the past.
