Description

In this autobiographical novel, Rick Ryan, a young American desperate to avoid Vietnam in 1968, is drafted but manages to maneuver his way into a German language class, where he is promised a post as a translator by an army recruiter. Despite this, he is sent to Germany to work with the American military police, who themselves are working with former Nazis. Rick s role was to arrest other American soldiers for minor infractions such as smuggling cigarettes, but when a routine arrest leads to violence, Rick is summarily ejected from the Army so he can escape local justice. The book s message is clear and repeated throughout the book: the Army is not a game, and no matter what you tell yourself to get through it, you are still a trained killer. Ryan offers a side to Vietnam that most people don t see: the lucky enlistees who managed to avoid going to the jungle to do their service. Ryan s style may be a bit repetitious, but he drives his points home about the dangers of the military and how it affects people.
