Movie Description Six soldiers returning from WWII come back to find a government that operates on kickbacks, extortion, and a mayor who profited from the very war they were fighting. They organize their own political party and campaign to overthrow the government. They have no idea how far the mayor will go to keep his power and find themselves fighting their greatest battle for freedom where they least expected it--at home.
Synopsis Three World War II buddies return home, only to find that a corrupt mayor and sheriff have taken control of their small, Texas town.
George Meade, Jesse Meadows and Juan Medina are war heroes who must learn to adapt to life back in the States. However, each man has an obstacle that gets in the way of his ability to readjust. When George decides to try for a political career, he must choose between working for the powerful mayor, Tom Cantrell, or fighting against the status quo. Meanwhile, Jesse struggles to overcome the feelings of inadequacy caused by a war wound, as well as by his wife's new position as head of their factory. Finally, Juan battles prejudice to find a job.
Despite their private troubles, the veterans join forces to defeat the mayor and the cruel sheriff who acts as his puppet.
This well-acted drama was based on a true story.
