...waist-deep swamp toward the lights of El Jobean, a tiny fishing village. He never made it. Two Charlotte County deputies stalked him until finally he paused to rest directly in front of them.

...Marines helping to mop up a trapped enemy unit below Danang and one infantryman in a patrol that was ambushed 40 miles north of Saigon. One of the 31, impossible to single out, became the 30,000th American to be killed in action in Viet Nam since the grisly log was begun on Jan. 1, 1961.

The job will give the ageless Satch time to log another 158 days on a major-league roster, thus qualifying him for a $250-a-month pension...
