Spoilers ahead
In October 2004, a New York Army National Guard unit is getting ready for a deployment to Iraq. First Lieutenant Danny Selfton, the executive officer of his company, is unexpectedly reassigned to a non-deploying public affairs unit because of his politically influential father, yet he stays on hand to assist with the final preparations and keep things moving smoothly.
Specialist Reyes, a combat medic in the same unit, hopes for a compassionate reassignment so his son can get needed medical care for lung cancer. His request is denied by battalion commander Lieutenant Colonel Owens, who explains that Reyes’s medical skills are essential for the upcoming deployment, leaving Reyes with a painful choice between duty and his family.
