Description10 and a Silver Star... A Sardonic Saga of PTSDJust as WWII gave us Catch 22 and Korea produced MASH, Vietnam delivers 10 cents and a Silver Star. No one can laugh off the incredibly cruel Vietnam War, but Bruce Johnson\'s sardonic antidote to the plague of PTSD helps recover the truth - if you don\'t laugh, you\'ll cry. An unworldly young man volunteers to be drafted early. He ventures into the essence of an old combat adage: War is long periods of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror.

He muddles through the American Dream because his sardonic attitude views that dream as one big long joke. With no job he finances a car; with no corporate experience he stumbles to the top of his dad-in-law\'s chain of Mexican restaurants, pilots a plane and performs his way through life in a Walter Mitty daydream. He buys houses and country club membership, never sure about the Silver Star. Is it a lucky piece or a jinx? Who really earned it?Surrounded by weirdo characters in Vietnam, they become even more outlandish in civilian life. Upon awarding the Silver Star, the company commander: "I wanted to get this decoration into your hands just as soon as possible; while you\'re st
