Synopsis
The Short-Timers is a 1979 semi-autobiographical novel by U.S. Marine Corps veteran Gustav Hasford, about his experience in the Vietnam War. It was later adapted into the film Full Metal Jacket (1987) by Hasford, Michael Herr, and Stanley Kubrick. Hasford's novel The Phantom Blooper (1990) is a sequel to The Short-Timers. The book was supposed to be the first of a trilogy, but Hasford died soon after completing its sequel and before writing the third installment.
