Excerpts

Coastal South Carolina - Summer of 1942. Bruce Weber is arrested by Charleston County police for the eighth time. He is charged with reckless driving, speeding and accused of possibly hauling bootleg whiskey. He appears before grouchy old Judge Wade Bleese who is inclined to be sympathetic. Digging deeply for a soution to the dilemma, Bleese offers Bruce an option: go to juvenile correction and possibly jail or enlist in the Navy's V-5 Aviation Cadet Pogram which does not permit cadets to be married or to drive while in the program. Bruce elects the latter. He has a problem convincing his sweetheart that they cannot marry until he gets his wings. Bruce is sent to Pre-Flight School at the Univ. of GA then to primary training at St. Louis, MO and finally to advanced training at Pensacola. At pre-flight, primary and advanced training, his short temper and flippant mouth get him into trouble with his instructors. During primary training he demonstrates unique abilities and talent in the flying phase but continues to have trouble with military regulations and supervisory personnel in the ground phases. He has a brief, steamy sexual affair with a Wave before leaving for Pensacola. During the final months of his advanced training, Bruce continues to demonstrate exceptional skill in flying, winning the admiration of his fellow cadets as well as his flight instructors, but he is also constantly distressed as his demerit total soars almost to the level where he might be eliminated from the program.
