The Wartime Diary and Legacy of Lt. Col. William G. Walters, Sr.
As transcribed and remembered by Kris Walters Wiese
In the humid jungles of Burma, amid disease, exhaustion, and relentless rain, one soldier carried not only a rifle-but a pen.
From Benning to Burma traces the journey of Lt. Col. William G. Walters, Sr., through the pages of his wartime diary-beginning at Fort Benning and leading into the heart of the China-Burma-India theater. Through meticulous daily entries, he recorded the unspoken costs of war: the monotony of waiting, the chaos of movement, and the quiet acts of endurance that never made the headlines.
Over eighty years later, his granddaughter, Kris Walters Wiese, brings his words to life, pairing them with modern reflection in a powerful dual narrative. What emerges is not just a record of one man's war-but a family's rediscovery of courage, sacrifice, and the lasting weight of duty.
