Airborne (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Fresh off the farm, young Eddie Slocum enlists in the famed 82nd Airborne Division, to follow in the footsteps of his uncle. Training for the parachute corps is grueling, but not as bad as the harsh treatment the naive country boy receives from his own squadron. Private "Rocky" Laymon is a huge brute of a man, who bullies Eddie incessantly, taking every opportunity to make the boy's life miserable. But when a training exercise turns deadly, Eddie and Rocky will be forced to work together or perish.
