A young man embarks on an adventurous start to his adult life, experiencing the pain, sweat, and fear of Vietnam-era Marine Corps boot camp. No holds barred in the terrifying arrival at the recruit depot. The fright, confusion, and hazing of forming a new platoon. The pain and jam-packed days of training. The panic of nearly being dropped to a new platoon due to illness, meaning more time in hell. The joy of graduating with the title of "United States Marine." The Few, The Proud.
