A young pilot, a Vietnam veteran, with a new wife and an ex-girl-friend, has more than enough to contend with, but his memories of the war present the greatest hazard.
David Lowell Rich is one of the new group of young producer/directors who is equally at home in television and film studios. His credits include The Plainsman and Madame X.
