Summary:
Brought to Vietnam in 1965 by the army for an early a.m. radio show, irreverant, non-conformist deejay Adrian Cronauer blasts the formerly staid, sanitized airwaves with a constant barrage of rapid-fire humor and the hottest hits from back home. The G.I.s love him, but the top brass is outraged.
