Summary It's 1967 and Jethro is a 20-year-old Aussie lad who is about to take up his new posting in Vietnam. Five months later Jethro is on his way home in a medic chopper with a third of his body blown away: one leg is amputated, his right hand and half of his left hand - gone. And so begins Jethro's journey back to a whole life. This is the story of a wounded soldier and what happens to survivors
