Description
A true story of innocence lost and courage found. Ron Kovic, a young volunteer for the Vietnam War, changed from being a zealous teen to an embittered veteran, paralyzed from the mid-chest down. He returned to an environment vastly different from the one he left and struggled before emerging as a brave new voice for the disenchanted.
