Grumpy Old Daniel @grumpyolddaniel.bsky.social · Feb 28 Pleasant surprise tonight. Discovered I had the same book from different years. "Up Front" by Bill Mauldin, one copy from 1945, the other from 2000. Recommend it for anyone wanting a unique perspective on the US GI from WW2.

Mauldin's cartoons are so great. Patton, always the grump, didn't think so. He called Mauldin an "unpatriotic anarchist" and threatened to "throw [his] ass in jail".
