Thoughts of a Soldier
Has Entered the Public Domain
On 1 January 2026, the translation of Thoughts of a Soldier (Gedanken Eines Soldaten) made by Gilbert Waterhouse expired. As a result, readers in the United States (and places with comparable copyright laws) may, to their hearts’ content, download, store, and share copies of that work (Internet Archive).
Indeed, given the tendency of digital copies of works like this to go the way of Fotomat, I recommend that all who might be interested in reading this gem download a copy at their earliest convenience.
