About
Every soldier's tour had its share of obtuse NCOs, chickenshit details, and those exquisitely torturous and endless waits best characterized in the ironic phrase, "Move around all you like, but keep one foot in place." This belated salute is for you disgruntled veterans who have known the joys of KP, guard duty in the rain, GI'ing latrines, hikes in the humid Georgia boonies, and above all, Army chow, a scourge to eye, nose and palate which will forever live . . . in infamy. A lover of the desert and all things western as a result of growing up in El Paso, Texas, Steve Smith moved to Southeast Arizona after forty years in the cold winters of Michigan. He lives on a "ranchette" surrounded by mountains with wife Peggy, several cats and a dog, where he is polishing several novels, short stories and a humorous memoir of his peacetime Army days.
