Ninety Day Wonder

One man’s plan for the future is altered by the crucible of the war that formed the Greatest Generation. In 1940 Gene Sinclair had a plan-become a medical doctor. It was his ultimate goal and would get him out of the monotony of teaching high school chemistry. But as World War II looms, Sinclair is drafted and sent to train on coastal artillery. He soon wrangles himself a place in the pharmacy training program, but just as life in the army seems to be improving, the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor. Sinclair is dragged back to the artillery and he’s sent to the ninety-day Officer’s Training School. Despite Sinclair’s resolve to avoid romantic relationships until he becomes a doctor, he meets Sarah Gale at OTS and falls for her. War soon separates the young lovers when Sinclair’s unit is shipped off to Australia, where the reality of war shakes up his world once more.
