Ex-infantryman and reconnaissance officer, author and humorist Patrick Ryan is perhaps best remembered for this acerbically comic novel, first published in 1963. Here is the satirical 'memoir' of the misadventures of the haphazard, heavily armed and notably naive Lieutenant Ernest Goodbody - in peace, a corn chandler's clerk; at war, Commander of Twelve Platoon - and his fellow fighting men: Sergeant Transom, Corporals Hink, Globe and Dooley and Private Drogue - as they stumble, ill-prepared , and unaware, into the theatres of World War Two. Adapted to film by Richard Lester in 1967, starring Michael Crawford and John Lennon. Warning: Reading this book in public causes out-loud laughter.
