Chief Warrant Officer Craig Thompson, a United States Army Apache Helicopter pilot, is injured while serving in Afghanistan. Now, back home in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, and confined to a wheelchair, his nightmare continues.

The departments within the facility do not know what the other departments are doing, and most of the personnel involved with the project do not know the true and full extent of the project. Soon Craig figures out the truth behind the project and its real intent. Yet he understands the reason for the project and is completely onboard. He continues to play his role in the project.
