Produktbeschreibung

The General's first mistake was granting the men of the Kitzingen Area Band leeway to provide a musical background for his exalted command. His second mistake was not establishing someone to keep an eye on us. The company where we billeted were told that we were "hands off," that they were to leave us to our own devices. Corruption naturally followed, helped along by letters and cards from the White House to a tuba player whose farm abutted President Eisenhower's at Gettysburg. Soon the KAB was more a rollicking college frat than a military unit, a close cousin to M*A*S*H. So climb aboard and discover why we were called "The Fucking Band."

Autorenporträt

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.
