  I remember being indifferent to _Starship_Troopers_ and liking
_The_Forever_War_ but I still think _Armor_ was the best of the
bunch.	Forget all this political stuff - for that matter forget
interstellar war - just go down there and kill bugs.  And kill them
again.	And again.  And again.	Wonderful study in stress-related
mental illness plus lots of blood, gore and snappy dialogue.  Highly
recommended, despite my probably less-than-encouraging review.	John
