The Vanisher by Michael Shaara:

"He was expendable, this Web Hilton, this young officer with the strange heritage. And so it was that he was ordered out into space where he saw the uncovered stars, and met the naked alien, and became the first man in history to die more than once. "


('The Vanisher' by Michael Shaara)
