Publisher's Synopsis
"In Vietnam, there was war everywhere. Stateside, there was no war, only drudgery in the guise of duty." And so begins William B. McCormick's tale of Army life after returning from his tour of duty in Vietnam. Arriving home in 1969 as a newly promoted sergeant E-5 fresh from his tour with the 174th Ordnance Detachment in Vietnam, he was soon assigned to the 823rd Ordnance Company, Fort Riley, Kansas, where he would spend the next ten months "wading through the BS" and doing his best to "not go crazy, hit anybody, or tear his hair out, and still leave with an honorable discharge." His stories will seem familiar and ring true to just about any enlisted soldier who served Stateside during those times.
