It is the '30s, and we meet the old corps, as it existed between WW I and WW II--on station in Shanghai, at Quantico, in Washington, all nicely contrasted with civilian life stateside. But the calendar is moving relentlessly toward a fatal day in 1941. When it comes, we understand why nothing could ever be the same again--and what it's going to take to win the awful conflict into which we have been bloodily and unpreparedly thrust.
