Beetle Bailey: Complete Cartoon Collection

For 65 years, the laziest private in the Army has won the daily attention of millions of faithful comic strip readers —and kept them in stitches. Beetle Bailey, the Private who'd rather drop and nap than drop and "do 20," is the wise-cracking joker of the most famous Army camp — Camp Swampy, where befuddled General Halftrack still hasn't heard from the Pentagon, grumbling Sgt. Snorkel has never had a date, Beetle hasn't washed his socks, and Cooke still makes those high-bouncing meatballs.
