A Reminder of Catch 22
Thursday, 5th April, 2007
I am grateful to Brian Miller, one of my esteemed readers, for the following extract from Catch 22 where Yossarian was told he could go back home, released from the army, on one condition:
Colonel Cathcart: All you have to do is ... like us.
Lt Col. Korn: All you have to do is be our pal.
Colonel Cathcart: Say nice things about us.
Lt Col. Korn: Tell the folks at home what a good job we're doing. Take our offer Yossarian.
Colonel Cathcart: Either that or a court-martial for desertion.
