In a jungle was within a war, deep inside enemy territory, one unit--and one man--will write a glorious chapter in the proud SEALs history through unparalleled fortitude and terrible sacrifice--while learning the most brutal lesson of the hell called Vietnam: that the deadliest enemies of all might be those on their own side.It is the highest award a grateful nation can bestow upon its fighting men.
