I'm just here for the Nazi officer autobiographies. Gimme.

Could I get some good books on (various aspects of) World War II? I've read some autobiographies by SS volunteers, and have perused some heavier books like Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder as well as The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by Shirer but the long tomes are too much for me. So my question is: what are the best autobiographical books from the actors in WWII, including soldiers, officers, politicians, and prominent civilians? For example I'm reading The Eastern Front by Leon Degrelle right now, and just ordered a copy of picrel, and I'm planning on reading Hitler's Table Talk sometime soon; so basically, exciting first-hand accounts. They can be from any side, not just German–bonus points for actual obscure movements like the Iron Guard (which I in fact need to read up on) or the Cossacks or even from the war being fought in Indochina. Anything exciting and from the first-person POV.
Thanks.
