Jnger manages to survive the war and write about his from his personal perspective. Although Jiinger does not mention that he detests war and he admits that he admires the honor and bravery of the men on both sides he frankly and almost callously retells his story. J finger though often does mention the appreciation he has for being behind the line or on furlough. Jiinger was able to overcome the narrow mindedness of many combatants have about their enemy and respected his enemy and ignored expressions like \"avoid contact with the enemy,\" and even dined with French women. Junger also respected his enemy and wrote about war from a rational humanitarian first- person point of view. It is these qualities that Jiinger uses to write his war diary that allows him to elevate above the standard war diary and reach the levels of classic literature
