Sword Of Honor Trilogy by Evelyn Waugh
The narrative follows Guy Crouchback, a devout, conservative Englishman who joins the armed forces in World War II; through successive postings and episodes of farce, incompetence and moral compromise he struggles to reconcile his Catholic faith and traditional values with the chaos of modern war. Encounters with bungling bureaucracy, crooked officials and fraught personal relationships expose the erosion of the old social order, and the tone moves between satirical bite and melancholy reflection as he seeks redemption and meaning amid widespread disillusionment.
