Absolute Flanigan

With America at war in the Pacific and Atlantic in 1942, Peter Flanigan has reason to assert his strong masculinity and pride of country by following his classmates and joining the military. His decision to march to the beat of a different drummer clashes with the euphoria of war and patriotism. Flanigan refuses to register for the draft and is sentenced to federal prison. When the United States Forestry Department develops a shortage of firefighters, Flanigan accepts the offer to leave prison punishment for the mountains of Montana and an adventure that will change his life.
