Lately I have been trying to remember the title of a book that I haven't read for ten years or so, but would like to reread.

The book is an anti-war "war novel" written in the 60's or 70's. It chronicles the parallel careers of two soldiers. The protagonist is a mid-western student at West Point who leaves school to enlist in World War One. His counterpart is a WASPy egomaniac who lives only to further his own career. The novel follows the two characters through the interwar period and ends with the conclusion of World War II.


edit: after an hour or so of Googling, I found it. Anton Myrer's "Once An Eagle."
