After over two years in combat, idealistic Marine Charlie McDowell, the third generation of his family to serve his country in time of war, has a battlefield commission and a wound so serious it threatens to waylay his military career. Returning home to finish his education and conquer the rehabilitation that stands in the way of his return to active duty, McDowell also wants to reconcile with the girl he loves. Before any of that can happen, Charlie is rocked by trauma related depression, nightmares, and hallucinations that threaten to turn him into an emotional cripple. Charlie's fight to recover also demands he survive his new commanding officer, a bitter man with an old score to settle; who seems determined to drive McDowell from the service. From the battlefield, to the bedroom, to the halls of academia, Charlie McDowell is both a man of his time, and so much more. You will not forget him.
