Harry (Matthew Cowles) and Tim (Timothy Meyers) are an inseparable pair of macho punks always on the make for an easy sexual score. Marie (Lind say Grouse) and Sheila (Carole Monfer-dini) are a pair of lazily provocative talk-teasers who would have movie-mag fantasies of love if they were quite up to reading movie mags. Think of the Snopeses as swinging singles and you will get a fairly exact impression of the mentalities involved...

Proud, private and consummately confident of his ability, Kissinger has always acted alone, rising to his present eminence with the aid of almost no one but himself...
...late afternoon, the final four flyers moved out of the ready room and suited up. Colonel Macho drove out on the flight line to watch them take off. Ground personnel had painted the last bombs red, white and blue, inscribing them with labels: 500 POUNDS OF JELLY BEANS, CARE PACKAGE, LAST CHANCE CHARLIE. Read one carefully lettered piece of ordnance: THIS BOMB IS DEDICATED TO THE HOPE THAT ALL MARINES HERE AT BIEN HOA WILL SOON BE ENJOYING A GOOD AND EVERLASTING PIECE. It was not an inadvertent misspelling...
