...paradigm of the professional military man- dark hair fringed with grey, jaw square and trim, brown eyes alert under thick brown brows. His tunic was ablaze with the trophies of three wars - six tiers of campaign ribbons and medals from battles in North Africa and Sicily, France and Germany, Korea and Viet Nam, as well as the silver emblem of the master parachutist and the combat infantryman's badge...

...wife (Jane Fonda) leaves him, heading to the Menninger Clinic with their maimed son. Impotent with rage, Henry dynamites his cousin's farm, accidentally killing one of Rad's boys. Rad and Reeve combine to rebuild the land-a union of black and white that seems grey and unconvincing...
