description: Kamikaze Peacocks &amp; Oink cleverly describes Capt. Peter Fournier's encounter with "attack" peacocks, the adventures of a three-legged dog in "sin city" Saigon, a "fabricated" Purple Heart award, and a "Saigon tea" party. The reader also becomes involved with a musical enemy communication, Capt. Fournier's creative escape from the Viet Cong, and the mind-bending interrogation of a North Vietnamese medical officer. The book paints a picture of Vietnam that is quite different from the jungle scenes that many people remember.
