From the back cover blurb of David Drake's "Hammer's Slammers - at any price" (sci-fi war novel whose heroes are mercenaries).
He entered the minds of the Slammer's prisoners - a job that wasn't half as dirty as what came afterwards.
Entering something else, perhaps?
Leads one to think, doesn't it?
ETA 23/5: (Actually, having read the story, it isn't so bad - the dirty thing that followed afterwards was a nuclear weapon dropped on the prisoner's fellow resistance-members).
