12. A wide and well-documented coverage of the experiences of the Mennonite Church in World War 11 is found in Guy F. Hershberger, The Mennonite Church in the Second World War (Scottdale, Pa.: Mennonite Publishing House, 1951). The book is an official history and was prepared under the sponsorship of the Peace Problems Committee of the Mennonite Church. It records much on the intricate relations between the Mennonite Church and the government; it reflects the maturing processes of the peace position in the midst of wartime; and it records something of the internal tensions which the largest body of Mennonites experienced as it sought to spell out the implications of its nonresistant position in the church communities, in camps and hospitals, and in sacrificial service to war sufferers and others in Europe, the Middle East, Ethiopia, India, China, and Puerto Rico.

13. A detailed account of Mennonite draftees in World War II is contained in Melvin Gingerich, Service for Peace: A History of Mennonite Civilian Public Service (Akron, Pa.: Mennonite Central Committee, 1949).
