Bacque Jr. figures his poor eyesight rules him out for the draft, not to mention the fact that he's studying law in college, so the young man doesn't worry too much about the war raging in Vietnam.

Reassigned from an A team back to a B team, he finds himself removed from the front lines and ordered to perform a task better suited to an accounting major, a course he barely passed in college. Still, it beat trying to survive jungle warfare with a serious vision impairment...\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Walk in the Park: A Vietnam Comedy\u003c\/i\u003e charts Bacque's experiences in Vietnam along with his growing disillusionment with the war's management.
