Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger. It's under-read so I always get hipster kicks out of recommending it but it really is the perfect war memoir. No poetics or diatribes on the larger effects of the conflict. Just pure description of who Junger was, where he was and what he did. It does become sort of poetic naturally by relating that extreme of a human experience but it's so honest and well written that it transcends the typical "war memoir". A perfect book about war if I've ever read one.
