'Ya had 'ta be there!

Rating: Null/10 (12 November 1999)

Both the book and the film are classics. Mr Myers of Texas and others who give the book short shrift, no not of what they speak. They obviously never served aboard a U.S. Navy destroyer, or minesweeper, in a combat zone. Believe me when I say that the book is for real. 'Ya had 'ta be there to appreciate it.
