Julius Dickerson averages 18 points a game for his West High basketball team. He is a better football player. Call Me Speed weaves a gripping tale from the heartwarming streets of small-town America to Vietnam's relentless jungles. Meet Julius Dickerson, Speed, transforming from classroom troublemaker to a sports icon. Follow young Michael O'Brien, whose triumph over bullies fuels a high school journey, demonstrating his boxing skills and earning his peers' respect. Travel back to Gary O'Pat, who, amid family and high school challenges, enlists in the U.S. Army and becomes an elite sniper in the First Air Cavalry. They join soldiers like Sgt. Sebastian, Rabbit, Templeton, and others battling North Vietnamese forces, testing their mettle and bonds. When the battles escalate, their fight for survival soars. Within their riveting stories lie experiences of youth's resilience, military combat and later life, echoing valor through generations. Call Me Speed is an inspiring tale that lingers, showing a journey of courage, camaraderie and unyielding resolve.
