It's the middle of the Vietnam War. Meanwhile, an armored truck
with three million in cash is traveling through Oregon. And two
combat chopper pilots plan their return to the states to hijack it.
Pete Placker, a hell-raising Fresno State football player who
dropped out to become one of the best helicopter pilots in 'Nam and
Cecil Clanner, a stockbroker who got drafted, team up for what they
think is their payday. They commandeer a CH-54 heavy-lift
helicopter for what seems a simple heist. But when the hijacking
turns into a bloody shoot-out, they find themselves in unknown
territory. Now they have to contend with the Oregon wilderness, two
unexpected hostages, one infected eye and their own darker sides.
"Great read with authentic combat sequences. The hijacking is
shades of D. B. Cooper." Robin E. Scott, Major General, U.S. Air
Force (Ret) "A real page-turner. It'll make one helluva movie!"
