I am currently reading The Storm of Steel by Ernst Jünger. He was an infantry officer in the German Army during WWI and the book is based off his notes written during the war. There is no political or psychological baggage attached to it, it's just a recollection of his memories. I think it's what you're looking for OP.

Life and faith by Grossman.
Do it.
Stalingrad by Antony Beever is considered one of the best WWII books ever written.

Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania by Erik Larson. The book offers great insight from people that were there before the US entered into WWI.
