Storm of Steel is a very good WW1 memoir by a German stormtrooper. I imagine many of the general themes would appear familiar to French assault troops. You really have to be a bit crazy to volunteer for such a job, and to be good at it. Crave the adrenaline, the closeness to death.
@PugJesus Brave men. That job sucked. Probably very short lived
