Private Marion Hargrove recounts basic training at Fort Bragg with a comic voice. He notes kitchen KP ordeals, drills, missteps, and the sergeant’s fatigue as rookies bond, bicker, and improvise amid meals, calisthenics, rifles, and boot camp routines.
A long satirical piece blends Adolf Hitler imagined as a wallpaper painter and Fuehrer with a wartime drill scene where a private struggles during rifle inspection. It shifts to a humorous column urging women to curb bottle returns and to a note on media buys and a historic tax ruling, finishing with a reflection on German views of democratic resignations.
