Summary
And now there he was, Kimpo airbase, via Hawaii, via Tokyo, haggard layovers stumbling against unknown smells, sweating his fear in starched Class A's. He felt like a sideshow clown in the wrong costume, entirely misplaced, sleeping the sleep of terror in gradually shrinking aircrafts. When he emerged in the light, the loudness hit him first; he hadn't finished gathering up his wits when a teenage corporal started leading him away. He was a doctor. He was a draftee. He was in Korea.
And here was Hawkeye Pierce.
•••
B.J. Hunnicutt comes home from Korea struggling to grapple with what happened to him.
Or, a saunter through time and poetry, and what B.J. and Hawkeye do with them.Bookmarked by 8x23
