I read this book fourteen years ago. It's about a vietnam??? soldier whose arms and legs were blown off. He lost his hearing, sight, and was mute from the explosion. He attempted to use morse code by beating his head against his pillow trying to tell the nurse to please kill him. For the life of me I can't remember the name of the book or who wrote it. If any of you can help me with this I would certainly appreciate it!

"Johnny Got His Gun" by Dalton Trumbo.
This book also inspired a Metallica video.
