    Summary note
    "Playing trumpet in the 9th Infantry Division Band should have been a safe assignment but the Viet Cong swarmed the Mekong Delta and safety was nonexistent. This memoir of a conscripted musician in Vietnam provides a personal account of the lunacy surrounding combat support service in the 9th Infantry Division during the months prior to its withdrawal"-- Provided by publisher.
