Is the uncensored version (with the parts where Jung glorifies the war and says it was very much all worth it) out in English?

Robert Graves' autobiography, "Goodbye to all that" describes his time in the trenches. ie, a fucking meat grinder for poor men.

This is great, also talks about lis literary fellows in the war.

Also has a Monty Python-esque scene where an officer is showing some people how a new grenade is more solid and doesn't explode unless you do something purposefully wrong. Then he gives an example of the purposefully wrong manner and gets killed.
