Summary |
Captures the entertaining magic and mayhem of the anti-war and pro-labor show as it rallies and rouses dissident GIs stationed along the Pacific Rim. A gritty mix of rollicking performances and GI interviews, FTA (i.e. Free the Army) juxtaposes lighthearted political satire with the somber realities of war, occupation, and the absurdities of military life. |
