Long time comic book artist and letterer Rick Parker tells about the time he was drafted into the United States Army during the 1960s. Despite his constant concerns about being deployed to Vietnam, he never leaves North America as his basic training rolls over into officer training, artillery training, and guided missile training. Instead of harrowing or hilarious war stories, Parker finds the zone of mundanity that hides somewhere between the extremes of Full Metal Jacket and Gomer Pyle, show more U.S.M.C. and dwells in it for way too long. He comes off a bit dumb and naive as he provides not-quite-humorous, slice-of-life details about military life.
