Unexpectedly called up from his life as a professor of Education, Wilhite is deployed to a war zone in the capital city of Kabul. Once there, he and a dedicated team of Afghan, American, and Allied colleagues use their diversity, savvy, and drive to overcome all obstacles and build a symbol of hope – the National Military Academy of Afghanistan.
