April 1953. The Korean War has raged for three years. A new soldier, Private First Class Edward Michaels, joins a patrol that encounters and destroys a superior enemy force. He returns as the patrol?s only survivor. For gallantry above and beyond the call of duty, Michaels is awarded America?s highest decoration for valor, the Medal of Honor.But First Sergeant MacKenzie Campbell, a seasoned veteran of two wars, is skeptical. No one was left alive to confirm or deny the intrepid deed, which begs the question?is Michaels really an American hero?
