Overview
In April, 1969, Navy Chief Ben Morgan, his wife Pat, and their two young sons are living in a Japanese village when PR-21, a VQ-1 EC-121, is shot down in the Sea of Japan. The headlines are small, the thirty-three crewmen die quietly, and the pundits shake their heads. Pat suspects her husband and the crew of PR-23 are flying regularly out of DaNang to locate and help destroy enemy radar and missile sites in North Vietnam, but she soon learns that when he is at homein Japan, his responsibilities include the same unarmed reconnaissance missions. Because squadron operations are super-secret, she learns to live in silence, waiting and prepared for the worst. At the same time, Pat and her children adjust to living miles away from the conveniences Americans expect. They create a community from scattered families, sharing their struggle to provide security and normality under abnormal circumstances.
