It's 1989. The Berlin Wall is about to fall; but outside of Stuttgart, West Germany, at the Theodore 
Roosevelt Army Base, Specialist Ray Elwood of the 317th Supply Battalion is about to find his own cold 
war turn white hot. Elwood's a loveable rogue, a conscript who's managed to turn his military servitude 
into a blossoming network of black market deals--more out of boredom than ambition. Officially, Elwood 
has a day job, as battalion secretary to the inept--but caring--Commander Wallace Berman. On the side, 
he does everything from selling stolen Mop'N'Glo, to cooking heroin for the base's ruthless head of 
Military Police, Sgt. Saad. When a new top sergeant arrives, with the avowed intention of cleaning up 
the base, Elwood thinks the new blood is nothing he can't handle. But that was before he factored in 
the $5 million in stolen arms that just landed in his lap, Berman's jealous wife, an insane Turkish 
drug dealer, and the resulting lust, betrayal and murder.

1989. The Berlin Wall is about to fall, and the world is about to be made safe for the new world order. 
But outside of Stuttgart, West Germany, at Theodore Roosevelt Army Base, Specialist Ray Elwood of the 
317th Supply Battalion is about to find his own cold war turn white hot. Elwood's a lovable rogue, a 
conscript who's managed to turn his military servitude into a blossoming network of black market deals, 
more out of boredom than ambition. Officially, there's his day job as battalion secretary to the inept 
but caring Commander Wallace Berman. On the side, there's everything from selling the locals stolen 
Mop'N'Glo to cooking heroin for the base's ruthless head of Military Police, Sgt. Saad. When a new top 
sergeant arrives, with the avowed intention of cleaning the base up, Elwood thinks the new blood is 
nothing he can't handle, especially after he lays eyes on the top's daughter, rebellious Robyn. But that 
was before he figured in the $5 million in stolen arms that just landed on his lap, Berman's jealous wife, 
an insane Turkish drug dealer, and, of course, the resulting lust, betrayal, and murder.
