Mitchell spent most of 1968 lurching between alcoholic numbness?he was drinking a fifth a night?and the surreal alertness of hunt-and-kill missions. At his tour's end, he was captured by the Viet Cong and held for 2?? years. Abruptly, in the spring of 1971, he was freed. His homecoming was "devastating." The American air was dense with hostility. Outside a veterans' hospital in New York City, Mitchell was pushed

Veteran traders had never seen such commotion over an embryonic company, which had only 140 employees, sold no product to the public and showed a profit for just one year, at a rate of 2?? per share.

Lower Bavaria in the southeast remains largely undiscovered. A lovely old city where the Danube, Ilz and Inn rivers come together, is Passau, a 2??-hour drive from Munich. At the comfortable Weisser Hase a double room with breakfast is $43. Seventy miles up the Danube is Regensburg, Bavaria's first capital, where parts of the Roman wall still stand. The Regensburger Domspatzen (Sparrows of the Cathedral) are considered by many to be the equal of the Vienna Choir Boys...
