Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Boomerang! (Infantry Journal, Fighting Forces Series, 1945) is one of the more unusual entries in the series because - unlike the tactical studies such as Bastogne or Iwo Jima - it is a narrative-driven, morale-building wartime book. The book contains TWO stories; Boomerang & Baby Strikes Back: Boomerang is a combat-experience novel built around a series of frontline episodes rather than a single continuous quest plot. Set in the Pacific Theater, the story follows American infantrymen confronting how small tactical decisions, shortcuts, and acts of arrogance rebound on their unit - sometimes immediately, sometimes fatally later. The title refers to the central idea: What you throw out in combat-bad judgment, cruelty, carelessness - comes back. Rather than heroic triumph, the book emphasizes: Misused weapons, Poor discipline, Misjudging terrain or the enemy, Psychological strain on ordinary soldiers. The narrative voice is plain, pragmatic, and GI-level, closely aligned with Infantry Journal's mission: fiction that teaches without lecturing. Major Themes Include: Unintended consequences of combat decisions, Irony of battlefield "cleverness," Experience over theory, Combat realism vs. propaganda, Survival as professionalism, not heroics. Boomerang sits halfway between instructional fiction and hard-boiled war realism, closer in spirit to They Were Expendable or later Vietnam-era cautionary war novels than to triumphalist WWII fiction. The Second Novel, Baby Strikes Back, is more character-driven than Boomerang. The story centers on a soldier nicknamed "Baby"—initially underestimated due to youth, appearance, or perceived softness—who is shaped by combat into a decisive and dangerous infantryman. The novel follows Baby through: Early marginalization within his unit, Exposure to brutal jungle warfare, A turning point involving loss, humiliation, or betrayal, A final assertion of competence, authority, or lethal resolve, Unlike classic revenge fiction, Baby's "strike back" is not melodramatic; it is professional, controlled, and earned through experience rather than rage. The book reflects a post-1945 shift in war writing, where victory is assumed and the real subject becomes what war does to the men who fight it.
