Historical
Franklin LeBaron Sharps is a young paratrooper sent to
Vietnam in 1965 with the celebrated 101st Airborne Division-
the "Screaming Eagles." The great-grandson of Sergeant
Major Augustus Sharps and the son of Brigadier General
Samuel Sharps, a former Tuskegee Airman, Franklin fights a
war on two fronts; in Vietnam, he is determined to repay
the Viet Cong for their killing of his brother, and at
home, he fights against his father's attempts to reconcile
with the family he deserted. Drawing on his own experience as a paratrooper in Vietnam,
Tom Willard takes a brutally graphic look at the war in its
early years: a time when the United States was sorely
divided and its military heroes suffered bravely both
abroad and at home.
