Private Snafu is a soldier who gets in trouble all along He never can obey an order and everything he does is wrong. In every section Private Snafu fools around in drill and all. He'll mess up Keller, Founders, Williard but in France he's on the ball.
Reprinted from the Summer 1992 Heidelberg Bulletin

Private Snafu was indeed a soldier, but also a writer, a comedian and a student - a Heidelberg student. Using the pseudonym of Snafu, a member of the Army Specialized Training Program wrote limericks for The Kilikilik nearly 50 years ago.
Helmut Fisher vividly recalls that spring day when the U.S. Army advanced into Regensburg. But the former German soldier considers himself fortunate. He never had to fire a shot, because he didn't actually participated in the battle.
