    I highly recommend a truly authentic, unvarnished, and unmythologized account of the War of Resistance Against Japan: *Grandpa's Uniform*. There are no heroes with superhuman abilities, only Sichuanese boys forced onto the battlefield. Based on the true story told by my grandfather, a centenarian veteran of the war. This is not a wish-fulfillment story; there are no lucky breaks. It's about conscription, venturing thousands of miles from Sichuan, escaping air raids, marching on empty stomachs, and fighting with fire pokers and butcher knives. They were afraid, they panicked, they cried, they feared death. But the chaos of war forced them to grow up, and ordinary people bravely shouldered the burden of the battlefield. After a life of hardship and displacement, from refugees to conscripts, they were finally formally incorporated into the battered 32nd Division. Three ordinary boys bid farewell to their fleeing lives and faced the hail of bullets head-on. The writing style is raw, down-to-earth, and full of real details. It avoids sentimentality, whitewashing, and the mythologizing of any aspect of the war. If you want to read the most authentic, painful, and heart-wrenching account of the War of Resistance Against Japan, you must read this book. Every page tells the story of a real, living predecessor.
