For military science fiction fans.
I found this is an excellent novel. Haldeman is a Vietnam War veteran; a Purple Heart recipient who served as a combat engineer with the US 4th Infantry division

Excellent book - interesting science and logical consequences of that tech in military terms. I'd also refer to it as satire rather than comedy personally (Though that might be Zinzan being picky)
