Keith and Joe, military veterans, survived a murder attempt from an old friend. The two men, who grew up in scouting, try their hand with a new generation of young men to teach survival skills. Power struggles lie in the presidency of the United States. Murder lies in wait for the current president. Joe's sons, now helicopter pilots in the military, learn facts and join in the battle. The boys deal with school demands, athletics, girls, foes and scouts. With saving actions of Ethan, they receive protective help from great Indian spirits of the past. It comes down to the scouts. Can they save the captured scoutmasters and the president of the United States? They have limited experience, they are outgunned, outmanned, but the battlefield being their own backyard in small town Montana. An unlikely group, with the element of surprise, can they pull the impossible without loss of life? It is time to grow up.

Martin Howard has been involved in the boy scouts for over twenty years. He has held many different positions, travelled many places, and enjoyed the people that have been involved.
