January 1967, John 'Jethro' Thompson is a 21 year old Aussie Digger on his way to the war in South Vietnam.
Five months later he returns home - doctors don't expect him to survive his horrendous wounds,
This is the remarkable true story of Jethro's journey: his struggles to cope with enormous physical pain and the psychological effects of becoming a triple amputee, and the people who teach him the true meaning of mateship.
