The U.S. Army Security Agency maintained a chain of Cold War listening posts along West Germany’s border with the Communist bloc. They were manned by reluctant soldiers who enlisted in ASA instead of being drafted into the infantry. Discipline was lax at these outposts, but the sense of brotherhood was strong. Alcohol and immaturity sometimes led to incidents and adventures that would strain the credulity of by-the-book soldiers. This book peeks behind the curtain of secrecy that screened the men of these outposts from the "real" Army.
