(4) YA Vietnam series. This first series entry introduces four Boston boys with a strong friendship. They make a pact: if one is drafted to Vietnam the others will volunteer. The inevitable happens, and all four head for war. Narrator Morris (this book's star) believes his job is to look out for the others. The characters are disappointingly two-dimensional in this otherwise solid offering.
