Against the backdrop of the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War, three pairs of fathers and sons must put their honor and bravery to the ultimate test.

Now working for the CIA, Tony Trapasso must hide his murky missions from the people he loves, while his fighter pilot son, Mike, flies into the burning skies of Vietnam.

With more bloodshed on the horizon, all six men must find the strength to serve their country by plunging into the heart of the conflict . . .
