The Dual Existence of Soldier--Student, Ledebuhr

Len Lahman

Columbia Missourian

Charlie Ledebuhr leads a dual existence. Six days a week, he is a regular student--long hair, in faded jeans. But if his classmates pass him on Thursdays, many never recognize him. He knows his ways must change however, when he goes to boot camp this summer. Like his Chaplin father, Charlie wants to be a 'lifer'. Unlike his father, he wants to live his 'off duty' hours under the influence of something other than the Army.
