"Shack, Lead!" by Frederick T. (an19164@anon.nymserver.com). This is a story about military sex - which is not all that different from missionary sex <g>. In other words: none of the characters contract sexually transmitted diseases; nobody has bad breath; nobody gets pregnant unless they want to; few of the characters have any sexual inhibitions or hang-upss, and if they do, they quickly lose them; everyone always has an orgasm; and all the people live happily ever after, except those who get killed to add interest to the plot. Gary (nicknamed Wildman) is trying to find himself as he begins a tame, stateside assignment that will lead up to his retirement from the Air Force. Flashbacks cover his very hot sexual activities, mostly in the South Pacific during the conflicts of the general Vietnam era. The author seems to know the details of military life, and he makes military sex seem realistic. At the present time the story is incomplete. In fact, the title makes no sense at all: the only time the word "Shack" appears is in the title. The story also makes reference to a character named Willy Tamarack. There's a series of stories on a.s.s. about this person, but I have yet to read them. Having Willy appear in this story is apparently akin to having Tom Sawyer appear in Huckleberry Finn - only at a different level of sophistication. Overall, this is a very good story that is likely to continue to be extremely sexy. Ratings for "Shack, Lead!"
