Summary |
"Henry Neis, fresh out of high school from Kansas, is drafted and sent to Vietnam. Trained as a helicopter mechanic, he is promptly assigned to a personnel unit, a fitting introduction to the insanity of this war that makes no sense to him. Henry falls in with the company misfits and drug users, becoming an addict and dealer himself, yet his fundamental innocence shines through to the final page. Henry's account of his year "in country" is, by turn, fascinating, hilarious, terrifying, wondrous, and enlightening--sometimes all at once"--Back cover. |
