This memoir, An AFS Driver Remembers, gives expression to my own experiences as a young Driver or Volunteer with the American Field Service (AFS) during the final three years of World War II, 1942-1945. The settings for these experiences are illuminated by a remarkable set of photographs taken by my fellow Driver with AFS, and life-long friend, John C. ("Jock") Cobb.
I acknowledge that my memoir is but a "blip" in the titanic passages of the annals of World War II, the most devastating of wars unleashed upon our planet.
It does, however, portray a creditable sample of AFS in action in the Middle East, North Africa, and Italy during World War II, and within the context of a number of major battles. As such, I hope it can become a significant archive in the history of AFS.
