In Jewish Integration in the German Army in the First World War
David J. Fine offers a surprising portrayal of Jewish officers in
the German army as integrated and comfortably identified as both
Jews and Germans. Fine explores how both Judaism and Christianity
were experienced by Jewish soldiers at the front, making an
important contribution to the study of the experience of religion
in war. Fine shows how the encounter of German Jewish soldiers with
the old world of the shtetl on the eastern front tested both their
German and Jewish identities. Finally, utilizing published and
unpublished sources including letters, diaries, memoirs, military
service records, press accounts, photographs, drawings and tomb
stone inscriptions, the author argues that antisemitism was not a
primary factor in the war experience of Jewish soldiers.
