Using war memoirs, war journalism, and the personal experiences of
John Paul Wallis as a Marine with two tours of duty in Iraq, Wallis
and Mechling analyze the folklore shared by male warriors in the
combat zone to understand how the traditional everyday practices of
these men in groups serve as a form of psychological first aid for
relieving the symptoms associated with the stress of living,
working, and fighting in the combat zone. The authors study how
boys and men are socialized in American culture, the context for
their examining the folk traditions, including pet-keeping,
rough-and-tumble play fighting, video game play, masturbation, dark
play, and deep play.
