Swofford, da tutti chiamato 'Swoff', arruolatosi come suo padre e suo nonno prima di lui, passa dalla noiosa gavetta in campo all'azione di guerra durante l'operazione Desert Storm, nella prima Guerra del Golfo. In spalla un fucile da cecchino e uno zaino da 45 chili, attraversa i deserti mediorientali privo di protezione dal caldo tremendo o dai soldati Iracheni, sempre potenzialmente all'orizzonte.
