Haldeman, Joe: FOREVER WAR

I am one of the elite of the Earth. I have an IQ over 150; I have unusual health and strength and I have  been conscripted to guard humanity against the Tauran menace on some lonely outpost of the galaxy.

The catch is - the only way to get back home is after a combat tour, which because of the collapsar jump could last a century or two. That won´t matter, I´ll only be a few months older, but I won´t recognise the Earth I left. And, of course, not lifting in I won´t want to stay there. So I´ll re-enlist. And when I return as a veteran they won´t even speak my language...

The army is my home now.

But that´s what they planned all along wasn´t it ... wasn´t it?
