Real life, gripping and inspirational is this chronicle of a young man adrift in the world, struggling to find direction. With a loving nudge from his father, Scott decides on a stint in the U. S. Army. Intent on being a Green Beret, he puts all his energy into being the best he can be until he meets Trena, a missionary girl, in the Amazon jungles. Married and with his first child on the way, Scott changes course, and retires from the Army...25 years later, and after four tours to the Middle East.
