Summary:
A guitar-picking good ole' boy. A clean-cut all-American. A Navajo. A bookworm. A lumberjack. A slum kid. All enter Marine boot camp to be trained, hardened, and ready to answer their country's call. This is an epic ode to World War II Marine heroism and home front sacrifice. The saga follows recruits from boot camp to a New Zealand base of operations to the war they knew would someday come their way: the bloody invasion of Saipan.
