Gunner Inglorious - 24563 Henderson J H , 2nd NZEF
Gunner Inglorious is a poignant and deeply personal memoir by J.H. Henderson, a soldier who served in the 2nd New Zealand Expeditionary Force (2nd NZEF) during World War II. The book provides a raw and unfiltered account of Henderson’s experiences as an artillery gunner, offering a ground-level perspective on the realities of war, camaraderie, and survival.
The memoir chronicles Henderson’s journey from his enlistment and training to his deployment in key battles across North Africa and Europe.

Henderson’s narrative is marked by humility and honesty, as he reflects on his role as an ordinary soldier in an extraordinary time.
