Description

Set against the early escalation of the Vietnam War, this military thriller follows the urgent creation of the U.S. Army’s first air assault division. As commanders and soldiers confront untested technology, demanding new tactics, equipment failures, and fierce interservice rivalries, they must transform an experimental concept into a combat-ready force. The story explores leadership, loyalty, courage, and the human cost of adapting to modern warfare, capturing the determination of those asked to master a radically new way of fighting.
