The author writes of his experience as the typical 19-year-old draftee infantryman dispatched in late 1968 to the 25th Division on the Cambodian border. In a low-key manner, he proceeds through the draft, basic training, arrival in country, the travails of a grunt, the warrior bond, R & R, and return home. He articulates the common Vietnam combat experiences as well as anyone: the drudgery, horror, absurdities, futility, and captivation of war; the bond of camaraderie that lured him back from the rear to the field; and the trauma that scarred his postwar life. Russell's memoir is the saga of a crash maturation in which time in country became each soldier's most valuable possession and key element of self-definition. Now a self-employed writer who has survived serious readjustment problems, Russell possesses a philosophic maturity made resonant by his 25-year vantage point.
