'I'll never understand the fucking Army.'
Prew won't conform. He could have been the best boxer and the best bugler in his
division, but he chooses the life of a straight soldier in Hawaii under the
fierce tutelage of Sergeant Milt Warden. When he refuses to box for his company
for mysterious reasons, he is given 'The Treatment', a relentless campaign of
physical and mental abuse. Meanwhile, Warden wages his own campaign against
authority by seducing the Captain's wife Karen - just because he can. Both men
are bound to the Army, even though it may destroy them.
Published here in its uncensored, original version, From Here to Eternity is a
raw, electrifying account of the soldier's life in the months leading up to
Pearl Harbor-of men who are trained to fight the enemy, but cannot resist
fighting each other.
