'The historians can't seem to settle whether to call this one 'The
Third Space War' (or the fourth), or whether 'The First
Interstellar War' fits it better. We just call it 'The Bug War'.
Everything up to then and still later were 'incidents', 'patrols'
or 'police actions'. However, you are just as dead if you buy the
farm in an 'incident' as you are if you buy it in a declared war.'
5,000 years in the future, humanity faces total extermination. Our
one defence: highly-trained soldiers who scour the metal-strewn
blackness of space to hunt down a terrifying enemy: an insect
life-form known only as 'Bugs.' This is the story of trooper Johnny
Rico, from his idealistic enlistment in the infantry of the future
through his rigorous training to the command of his own platoon.
And his destiny is a war that will span the galaxy.
