Tour of Duty on DVD

Tour of Duty DVD The Third Season A television drama from the late 1980s that followed the year-long tour of duty of a single platoon in the Vietnam War, the third season of this popular show continued its unflinching, gritty portrayal of the absurdities and brutalities of war, as well as the small comforts that remain. The Bravo Company is led by Lt. Myron Goldman (Steve McCaffrey), an inexperienced young officer eager to demonstrate his authority. Sgt. Zeke Anderson (Terence Knox) is the real backbone of the unit, a more mature soldier on his third tour of duty, who provides guidance and support for the younger men, many of whom are still teenagers. With excellent writing, superb performances by the ensemble cast, action that makes the most of a relatively small budget, and uncompromising subject matter, each character is seen to grow and evolve over the course of the season. In season three, war correspondent Alex sets off for Paris despite a budding romance; Lt. Purcell battles drug use; and the platoon faces daily run-ins with the enemy and the constant threat of violence. Price and more info/Order it! Pre-Order Now! Available: Tuesday, July 05, 2005

The show followed one platoon of American soldiers throughout a year of battle in Southeast Asia.

The men of the platoon (played by Kevin Conroy, Joshua Maurer, Tony Becker, Terence Knox, Steven Caffrey, Eric Bruskotter, Miguel A. Nunez Jr., Steve Akahoshi, and Stan Foster) came from philosophically, racially, and economically diverse backgrounds. In order to survive the immense pressures of the war, these men must forge a bond, creating friendships that will ultimately save their lives.
