Stephen Kurt Westmann

    Stephen Kurt Westmann was a German physician who served on the Western Front during World War I. As a medical officer, he witnessed firsthand the horrors of aerial combat and the impact of tank attacks. After the war, he practiced medicine in Germany until the rise of Hitler, which prompted his emigration to Britain, where he lived out his days. His wartime experiences profoundly shaped his perspective on human suffering and the nature of conflict.
