Fiction:
"Winged Victory" and "The Blue Max", already mentioned. But if you would
like to straggle with the infantry, I can reccomend "Men and War" by Andreas
Latzko (an Austro-Hungarian writer that has some very harsh stories) and "Le
Main Coupee" (the severed hand) by Blaise Cendrars. these two can show you a
very different view to authority, sacrifice and bravery as depicted by
British, German or American writers.
