...activated reservists and Guardsmen depends on whether they believe their duty really helps national security. Already, 3,375 have been sent overseas; it would be hard to find more gung-ho outfits anywhere than four Air Guard squadrons mobilized straight into combat in Viet Nam. "Nobody's got a bitch about being here," claims Captain Thomas Risan, an airline pilot now bombing and strafing Viet Cong fortifications with the 120th Tactical Fighter Squadron at Phan Rang. Calling themselves the "Raggedy-Ass Militia of Happy Valley," the 25 pilots and 350 maintenance crewmen of the 120th TFS have racked up more...
...enjoys his own jokes too inordinately; he protests his right to protest too much, with some of the purplest prose apotheosizing America written since the rhetorical mauve of Thomas Wolfe ("Brood on that country who expresses our will.

Still, between DeMille's perversity and Hedy Lamarr's devastating charms, Delilah emerges as a highly unusual, if unresolved, extrapolation of the Bible...
...equal effect in far fewer brush strokes with Marcia and Janet, two of the husband swappers. The trouble is that with some minor differences, he seems to have used the same woman as model for them all-a well-meaning, even-temped, sexually adept American frau with not a bitch or a shrew, a man-hater or child-worshiper in the crowd...
