The Time Shifters
by Sam Merwin Jr.They called it T.T.T. --short for Time Teleportation Technique.

Chuck found the idea of time travel intriguing, but he was by nature suspicious of people wanting to do him favors--and vice-versa. And time travel turned out to have a couple of nasty side effects that made the price of time jumping almost too high to pay. But like it or not, Chuck found himself in this particular army for the duration--a duration that might last several hundred years! What happened to him shouldn't happen to any devout twentieth century coward... including meeting and falling in love with his own great grandmother!
