...hoped to ship out to Viet Nam, but never got there. At about 3 a.m. on Feb. 17, 1970, in the MacDonalds" apartment at Fort Bragg, N.C., his wife Colette, 26, pregnant with their third child, was killed; she was stabbed 37 times in the chest and neck. The MacDonald daughters, Kimberly, 5, and Kristen, 2 were murdered so savagely that the Army crime photographer became ill. MacDonald, who was superficially wounded, mumbled of an attack by four hippies chanting "Acid is groovy. Acid and rain." But military investigators concluded that MacDonald had murdered his own family and to cover...

When my breasts started growing at 13, she beat me across the chest until I fainted. Then she'd hug me and ask forgiveness. When I turned 16, a day didn't pass without my mother calling me a whore, and saying that I'd end up in Potter's Field, dead, forgotten and damned for all eternity. Most...
...anything except that Viet Nam was, as Mason writes, "a good place to buy stereo equipment." For months the Army suffered high chopper losses because pilots flew at low levels over Viet Cong-held villages and paddy-fields without varying their approaches and takeoffs. Men died because promised chest-armor plates for their cockpits failed to arrive. To exist, Mason learned to adapt to "the details of the job at hand, no matter how bizarre...
