In December of 1944, whilst behind enemy lines during the Rhineland Campaign, Private Kurt Vonnegut was captured by Wehrmacht troops and subsequently became a prisoner of war. A month later, Vonnegut and his fellow POWs reached a Dresden work camp where they were imprisoned in an underground slaughterhouse known by German soldiers as Schlachthof Fünf (Slaughterhouse Five). The next month - February - the subterranean nature of the prison saved their lives during the highly controversial and devastating bombing of Dresden, the aftermath of which Vonnegut and the remaining survivors helped to clear up.
This is a letter he wrote to his family that May from a repatriation camp, in which he informs them of his capture and survival. Transcript here.

I can definitely hear some Neil Young in this, which is probably why I dig this song so so much, and probably why I almost had a panic attack when I heard Neil Young on the radio as I was driving home for tonight’s concert.
Probably.
