It is 1941 and what Jordan has been dreading has finally come to pass. What will happen over the next few years will change life as the McKennas, the town of Dooley, Georgia, and the world forever. From Pearl Harbor to Burma; from Toccoa, Georgia and the beginnings of the US Airborne Division to the French underground to Operation Husky in Sicily, the McKenna men will be scattered far and wide as they leave their homes and families to go to war. They are the warriors, but the wives, children, and parents left behind will have to be warriors, too. The events that unfold will impact the many branches of the McKenna Family for decades to come.
