VIETNAM 1968 — AND THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS STORY EVER!
This is the story of Pat Moffett, a 20-year old street smart wise-ass who went to Vietnam and came out alive. And this is the hilarious story of Pat’s wartime adventures in Vietnam as he runs amok on the streets and in the air embroiled with currency schemes, the black market, impersonating officers, hijacking a helicopter to get pizza, dating bar girls, running secret personal missions for army brass, cutting deals, dodging bullets, skirting police, dragged into street fights, stalked by tigers, rescuing orphans, going from being nearly arrested to getting a bronze star, and picking shrapnel out of his butt. And that’s just for starters. No matter where you stand on Vietnam, you’d have to be dead not to laugh at loud when reading Pat’s stories.
"Smoothly written but not glib— the natural humor flows from the all-too-true stories of life in the rear." -- Father James Sheehan, author, "The Father Who Didn’t Know My Name."
"The most engaging, hilarious book about wartime experiences since M*A*S*H or Catch-22." -- John Pellicano, author, "Conquer or Die."
"You have never read a war story like this one: an achingly comic memoir about Vietnam." -- Cal Kirby, author, "Business Battle Plan."
