A Soldier's Tale: Memoirs of an Army Sailor
by Robert G Scott (9781424129126)

Military autobiographies usually deal with the military portion of lifeathe obligatory introductory chapter with the background and life before the military and then it is all combat, blood, guts, and tactics. Seldom do we read of off-duty time or life after military service. This book is different. There is combatathe experience of undergoing incoming artillery, sniper, machine gun fire, running the gauntlet of mines and ambushes and the medevac processaand the Armyas navy. But there is more. There are stories showing the difficulty of adapting to the peacetime Army, adapting to the environment of peace and paperwork. There are tales of hippies, bikers, lifers, and just plain people. Delivering pizza, driving a taxi, and riding a Harley coast to coast not just once, but twice. It is also a love story. It is comedy and pathos mixed with excitement and adventure.
