When I was in 6th grade our teacher read us Guadal Canal Diaries over a period of several weeks.

Yeah, I know, they don’t do stuff like that anymore.

In Toastmasters I did a reading of the experiences of a POW in Vietnam. A comment from a Grad student was: “We have to tell all the young people about this so they won't join the army.”

I read the Richard Tregaskis book when I was young and had the opportunity to meet his son.
