Sergeant Tom Highway, a hardened, tough veteran of Korea and Vietnam, returns to the United States for his last tour of duty with the U.S. Marine Corps. He is assigned to training a recon unit. Their cool, trendy and 'hippy' approach to military life is a reminder to him that he is, in the words of his general, "an anachronism" - useful only "in case of war". Conveniently, a war does arise (the invasion of Grenada in October, 1983) and successfully tests both his usefulness and the effectiveness of the new recruits.

"There are no wars to fight. But Gunnery Sgt. Tom Highway, a dog-faced relic of past wars, still has a lot of fight in him. He is a Marine Corps lifer who started his last tour of duty before retirement, and sees the bumpy road his life has taken become more complicated, due to feisty recruits, by-the-book officers, and a salty ex-wife to whom he's still attracted."@en

"As he begins his last tour of duty before mandatory retirement, grizzled U.S. Marine Corps lifer "Gunny" Highway sees the bumpy road his life has taken become even more complicated. Highway is at once a leather-hided boot-camp traditionalist, going nose-to-nose with feisty new recruits; a battle-scarred Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, going eyeball-to-eyeball with officers whose knowledge of war comes from textbooks; and a closet romantic, going heart-to-heart with his ex-wife, hoping to rekindle their love with lines he's learned from Harper's bazaar and Cosmopolitan. Culminates as Highway leads his combat-ready platoon during the 1983 U.S. invasion of Grenada."@en
