Just finished and highly recommend this book. He lived in Ruston, LA, when he died in 2023.
His parents were German citizens who lived in Chicago when he was born an American citizen. They were interned in Texas then deported to Germany in 1943. He returned to the US and retired as a Lt. Col. from the USAF after serving two tours in Vietnam.

Growing up with Adolf as your name during that time must have been ROUGH. “Wes” was a good choice 
Thanks for the rec. I’m on a WWII kick myself at the moment and listening to a bunch of stuff while painting some WWII miniatures. Will add this to the list

This book is a great premise for a movie.

Could also be a title of a pro sports movie/documentary
