...hiding and accepting the humiliation and, worse, the awkward help of Lucien. Wonderfully portrayed by Holger Lownadler, the tailor dresses in his best suit and pays a social call on Lucien at police headquarters, where he is promptly arrested. He has salvaged, at least, whatever remains of his honor...
...military in Catch-22: I don't recall it being characteristic of the military in World War II. It was characteristing of the military during the Korean War, during the Cold, War, and became manifest during the Vietnam War. It was just a perversion of all codes of honor that are being taught at Annapolis or in American military justice.

It is hard to conceive of a more inappropriate choice...

Pilger says that despite Vietnam's low priority in the news, and despite the fact that most Americans may consider the war in Vietnam over, it is still very much America's war. In interviews with several U.S. civilians in a Saigon bar each man explains his job--many are technical experts and all share one viewpoint in common. That is, they're absolutely essential to the smooth functioning of the South Vietnamese effort. Without them...
