Description: "To honor bonds forged twenty-five-years ago at West Point, Lieutenant Colonel Sam Avery leads an illegal mission deep into ISIS-held territory. Flying across Iraq in a stolen helicopter, Army Lieutenant Colonel Sam Avery knows that tonight will be his last mission. He and his crew will either be shot down by ISIS, or court martialed when they return. Sam doesn't care. He can't care. There is too much at stake. As the chopper flies through the night towards their objective, Sam reflects on his time in the crucible of the United States Military Academy. West Point made Sam the man--and the leader--that he is. It taught him not only about Duty, Honor, and Country, but also about brotherhood, loyalty, and sacrifice. These values motivate him and his team as they undertake their final and most audacious Spirit Mission"--
