Three Pennsylvania steelworks head off to the Vietnam War.
Experiencing the horrors of war after being captured, the friends are separated..
A revisit to a movie I had not seen in a while. This is all powerful stuff and shows the horrors that war can inflict on the soldiers and the families, and the aftermath on the return home.
You need to be in the right frame of mind for this as although this is a great movie, and thought provoking, it is also very sad and somewhat depressing.
