Publisher's Synopsis

This is the story of a band of young Israeli soldiers, including the author, who in the 1990s were charged with holding an outpost inside Lebanon known as the Pumpkin ('Flowers', the second part of the title, was the code used on military radio for 'casualties'). Using humour, pop culture, and even musical references, Friedman recreates the wartime experience in a narrative that is part memoir, part journalism, part military history.
