Slow Walk in a Sad Rain
"Welcome to Special Forces A Camp number 413, where commanding officers issue orders without meaning. Weapons are used in ways the grotesque opposite of their original design. And the Green Berets stumble on a shocking alliance between the CIA and north Vietnam, a union they must destroy - even at the cost of bringing both sides down on them. Hailed as the Catch-22 of the Vietnam war, it's poignant, darkly comic debut novel that established John P. McAfee, former Special Forces officer and combat veteran, as an extraordinary new voice in wartime fiction."--Book cover
