Summary: "I Was a Teen-Age Secret Weapon" by Richard Sabia is a science fiction novel written in the late 1950s. The book explores themes of unintended consequences and the complexities of human interactions through the story of Dolliver Wims, an eighteen-year-old boy whose mere presence tends to generate catastrophic accidents among those around him. This unique premise sets the stage for both comedic and serious moments, as Wims is thrust into situations far beyond his control and understanding. The narrative follows Wims, who is unwittingly enlisted in the army, where he becomes a target of hostility from his peers and superiors alike. As the story unfolds, he finds himself in a bizarre scenario where his very existence seems to cause havoc and mayhem among his fellow soldiers and leaders, culminating in his capture by the Russians during a training exercise. Unbeknownst to him, he has become the focus of a larger military strategy intended to thwart potential threats to the United States. The outcome sees Wims not just survive against overwhelming odds but also inadvertently contribute to international crisis resolution, all while highlighting his innocence and inherent goodness amidst chaotic circumstances.
