1 SUMMARY
A wounded Iraq War veteran returns home and travels across the U.S. to reconnect with three members of his former unit. Each encounter reveals how war reshapes identity, relationships, and moral grounding. Blending realism with surreal moments, the play builds toward a realization: the answers he seeks won’t come from others, but from within.
