Jack Smith
Jack faces:
Fear
Constant violence
Ruthless enemies
Boredom
Injuries
the realities of war
the deaths of his friends
His view of war changes from a vision of adventure, almost a game, to a more realistic view, seeing the carnage that ensues.
I feel like I'm Fixing to die rag
Big Strong Men: Enlist in the army
Generals: Blow up the communists
Wall Street: Invest in the War
Mothers: Send your sons to Vietnam
And it's one, two, three, what are we fighting for?
There's plenty good money to be made by supplying the Army with the tools of the trade
Just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb, they drop it on the Viet Cong
Be the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box
