The Pentagon Years

Meer over het boek

WITTY, INTENSELY REAL, POWERFULImagine the madcap characters of MASH transported to Vietnam-era Pentagon. Like their Korean War counterparts, these young men are recent college graduates drafted into military service for an unpopular war. Toiling in the basement office of the Pentagon, far from the rice paddies on the other side of the world, war is not an abstraction for them. With a profound sense of obligation to their brothers in the jungle, they couple compassion and humor to cause mayhem in the bureaucratic process with their zany antics.Early praise for "THE PENTAGON YEARS""...an off-kilter, often hilarious portrait of life inside the stateside U.S. Army during the Vietnam War era... refashioned by a satirist's wicked imagination..." Robert Bidinotto, award winning author of "Hunter".
