C.S. Forester's Hornblower books.

If I'm feeling like trashy historical fiction, Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe books are very light reading.

Guns of August was amazing. Made me tear up in parts

I prefer "non-fiction" accounts from officers, soldiers, military personnel in general. I've mostly read books made by my countrymen, Finnish books that is.

Storm of Steel for sure, Author survived almost the entire war as a frontline German infantryman, the unbelievable amount of shit that guy saw would be indescribable, except for the fact that he did in fact describe it in detail.

Homage to Catalonia

Goebbels personally led a subversive military strike against a movie theater so people couldn't see the film, pretty sure they tried to hunt down the writer too.

I would recommend The Things They Carried
An all time favorite of mine
