Hal Boyle relates the story of a mean, petty major in the American Army in the Pacific noted for arrogance and poor judgment. He steals a private’s issued pistol, forces repayment from the man, and is later exposed by records. Despite a promotion to lieutenant colonel, he loses the title of the meanest major.
