Softside illustrates not only a timeline of years, but the timeline of love; how a young man fighting in a war transforms from his fancy for a woman to a deep, abiding love. Through his war letters home we see how the woman of his dreams undergoes a transformation into his reason to survive.

The Ultimate Transformation Series

More than an account of war, Softside is a story told in war literature of love and patriotism told in the war literature words of a WWII Marauder. It touches the heart of anyone who believes in finding and keeping their one true love and gives us a glimpse into the heroic and patriotic actions of World War II veterans.

Transform Yourself and Find Enduring Love

Upon finding these war letters, Skibinski’s family wished to share this piece of history with the world. Skibinski would never realize the lasting gift of war literature he gave, which revealed a side of him never before seen by younger generations of his family.
