The Ghost Soldiers

O'Brien got shot. It's Vietnam. Big whoop. I don't get why he gets so mad at Jorgenson the second time, though. It's not Jorgenson's fault that he flipped out. And the revenge thing is incredibly annoying. O'Brien says he "devoted a lot of time to figuring ways to get back at him" (181) which is pointless since it didn't help him heal at all. There is so much pointless blame/anger in this book. It's really getting on my nerves. I must admit, though, that this book is a million time better than The Sun Also Rises.
