March 1968: The Miles to Vietnam war saga continues, and Second Lieutenant Jif Miles is in the middle of his one-year tour as 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) returns to action in Operation Pegasus, the relief of the beleaguered Marine Corps regiment at Khe Sanh. In a series of heliborne assaults―the largest cavalry raid in history―the cav troopers strive to reclaim the main road across Quang Tri Province, evicting tenacious North Vietnamese forces in actions that include a bloody struggle for the old French fort guarding the approach to Khe Sanh and a vicious night fight with NVA tanks. After Pegasus, Jif pins on the silver bar of a first lieutenant as he spends his week of R&R with his parents and sister at their Australian home. There, he reaches a startling and life-affirming revelation.
