Private Gary Green does not specifically subscribe to the philosopies of the apartheid system and feels no patriotic duty to uphold its ideals. Determined to outwit the military machine and avoid the conflict and cordite of South West Africa, he embarks on a journey of avoidance and evasion designed specifically at securing a cushy office job in his hometown. In a series of exceptionally amusing failures he instead finds himself banished to the notorious Army Battle School and the desolate red sands of the Kalahari Desert.
