The main character of the book Johnny Rico chooses to join the army. The book is set in the future and he can gain citizenship if he joins. Since he does not have any special qualifications he becomes a mobile infantry soldier. The war being fought at the time is against an arachnid species that are referred to as "the bugs." They are sentient and have a hive system set up. There is very little actual fighting in the book, but it is how the book starts. It begins by describing Johnny's fight against the "skinnies" who are allies of the bugs. The majority of the book is spent describing his time at boot camp Camp Arthur Currie. It is a grueling place, but eventually he graduates. He is involved in another fighting scene when he fully joins the army. Here is stationed on a bug planet. His section falls into a tunnel and he barely survives. He is eventually joins OCS and meets back up with his estranged father who also joined the military. Parts of the books also describe Johnny's time in Moral and Philosophy class, which he took in high school. Here he has a teacher that brings up controversial issues such as the constitution and communism.
