Searching for Gurney

SEARCHING FOR GURNEY explores the damaged lives of three U.S. Marines and one North Vietnamese soldier in the late 1960s and 70s. Each characters story begins at a different place-JT home and struggling with flashbacks; Coop on leave and getting drunk at his grandfathers funeral; Hawkeye at the moment a judge gives him the choice of jail or boot camp; and Vuong leaving his small village to join the NVA with patriotic fervor. Sent home after a horrific ambush the Marines face new battles with PTSD and a hostile American public that treats them as criminals. Nightmares anger and substance abuse destroy family relationships and ultimately one characters life. For all of them making sense of life after war requires the utmost courage.
