"Rob is a young African-American man coming to terms with his sexuality amid the backdrop of the hyper-masculine, homophobic U.S. Army. After surviving the notoriously brutal infantry basic training and then finding himself as a young gay man while remaining closeted to all but a few of his colleagues at his first duty station, he finds himself in dangerous territory after the United States declares war on Iraq and his unit is one of the first called in after the initial invasion... Rob's experience offers a ground-level view if life on the front lines of race and sexuality in the United States military in an unforgettable gay coming-of-age story--with a military twist."--Back cover.
