same here, I remember it vividly reading while backpacking in my 3USD Bangkok guesthouse 20 years ago

if if would be mandatory school reading I would probably enjoy it much less

from classics I can recommend also 1984, Animal Farm and Catch XXII (if you served in army you will have better appreciation for it, it was exactly describing absurd situations happening when I served)

I was never in the army, and I still enjoyed and would recommend Catch 22 regardless. It (sadly) applies to the goofiness of companies and bureaucracies more broadly.

That said, being in the army might add an additional level of apprecation but it's a good book regardless.
