Lieutenant General Eugene Irwin Robert Redford is brought to a maximum security military prison to begin a tenyear sentence for his decision in violation of a presidential order to send U.S. troops on a mission in Burundi, resulting in the deaths of eight soldiers. Colonel Winter James Gandolfini, the prisons commandant, is a great admirer of the general but is offended by a comment he overhears Irwin criticizes Winters muchprized military artifacts collection, calling it something no actual battlefield veteran would ever have.Winter, who has never seen combat, resents the remark. He then takes exception to what he perceives as Irwins attempt to change the attitudes of the prisoners, his admiration for Irwin fading fast. On one occasion, Irwin is punished harshly after stopping a guard from clubbing a prisoner, Corporal Ramon Aguilar Clifton Collins, Jr., who had made the mistake of saluting Irwin in the prison yard. ........
