David O. Strickland's darkly comic novel is set during EGRESS RECAP--the return of American POWs from Vietnam's "Hanoi Hilton" in 1973. Like Kurt Vonnegut's classic SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE, THE FIRST MAN OFF THE PLANE features POWs bombed by their own planes. Like Joseph Heller's satirical CATCH-22, it depicts the insanity of war...as well as Vietnamese, the Home Front, and the Nixon Administration--including President Nixon, Kissinger, Ehrlichman, Haldeman, Dean, General Haig, and Hugh Hefner's Playmates...among others.
