...Montalvania, Brazil, David Knoll, 20, of Chatham Center, N.Y., lives in a hovel about the size of a U.S. bath room. Yet he has changed the whole economy of the village by persuading the peasants to pool their oxen in a farm cooperative. To Knoll, the experience has been inspiring. "After I leave the corps, I want to do more with direct contact between people and the U.S. We've got to get down into the soil with these people.

...Battle Scar. In his olive-drab headquarters tent on the Plain of Jars, wearing a T shirt, a pair of Levi's and rubber bath shoes, Kong Le perches on a stool morosely studying a map beneath the light of a swaying hurricane lamp.

But after a warm bath, and after he has painstakingly penciled his intelligence report, he falls asleep; the lieutenant tenderly picks him up and puts...
...moral dualism, in which his Roman Catholic upbringing wars with his present nihilism, comes into play. Eager to have an audience with an elderly cardinal, Mastroianni is led, like a sheet-wrapped Dante, down into a fumy inferno where the cardinal is stewing his skinny bones in a steam bath. Then, in a dream, Mastroianni sees himself as the black-cloaked master of a harem surrounded by all the women of his life, who adoringly bathe him, dry him, and carry him to dinner wrapped in a blanket...
