Random Snippets. Inspiration for Helmet For My Pillow.

Robert Leckie, whose World War Two memoir about being a Marine in the South Pacific, Helmet For My Pillow, is regarded as a classic, was inspired to write it after walking out of a Broadway production of the musical South Pacific.
I have to tell the story of how it really was. I have to let people know the war wasn't a musical.
Leckie.
