Washington, D.C., is “ground zero” for the Nazis’ two-stage, A9/A10 “Amerika Rakete” packed with a deadly payload guaranteed to kill tens of thousands of innocent people.​

​Nothing “ho-hum” here.

​Everything’s happening all at once.​

Including growing up.

January 30, 1968...American generals are promising “victory soon” in Vietnam, but Hanoi proves them dead wrong by launching the bloody Tet Offensive.

While NVA and Vietcong surprise attacks hammer Saigon and Hue, American anti-war protesters outside the White House chant, “Hey, hey, LBJ, how many kids did you kill today?” President Lyndon Johnson’s dream of a “Great Society” has become a nightmare instead, as American flag-draped coffins keep coming home.

How to end a war that should never have started?

When the U.S. Constitution provides an unexpected answer, and the CIA provides a top-secret plan to do just that, USMC Captain “Flyboy” Doyle joins a handpicked team of paramilitary operatives determined to turn “Johnson’s War” into “Johnson’s Peace.” They have 72 hours to do just that...

The Nazis have the A-bomb... we don't... Hitler destroys Washington, D.C, New York City, and threatens to destroy Chicago, Detroit, Miami and more.

Stripped of its Congress, Judicial, and Executive branches, the United States is a fractured, frantic shell of its former self as it watches from the sidelines while Europe and Asia go up in flames. 

Until ex-Pan Am pilot Sam Carter and Hollywood actress Ava James join forces with a secret group of citizen-soldiers to fly a desperate one-way mission to bring America back into the fight for liberty and justice for all.

Moscow falls to Hitler… the Rising Sun flies over Pearl Harbor… One last chance to change the world for the better before it gets even worse.

If they fail, the neck of America’s most-decorated general meets the business-end of a samurai sword.

 

If they succeed, he’ll lead America in a double-barreled war against the Nazis in Europe, while General George S. Patton takes aim at Tokyo… and fires.

 

In an epic journey from San Francisco to the South China Seas, Sam and Ava’s rescue team face impossible odds in a desperate attempt to beat Fate at her own game and keep America in the fight for liberty and justice for all.

Now they’re out to conquer what’s left of the world.

Anchors away, old timers!

WW2-era, Montana Class battleship, USS New Hampshire, BB-70 is a paint-chipped, rusted-out, down at her heels, 68,000-ton “Museum Ship” that lost her lease in Portsmouth, NH, and is heading for the breakers...

 

...until high-tech billionaire Jack Riley makes her seaworthy again, so that his ailing father can sail one last time on the very first ship he served on in Vietnam, as a “butter bar” navy ensign.​

 

The tired and careworn ship still sports massive sixteen-inch guns, aging volunteers who love working on her, plus 250 lucky navy vets--sweepstakes-winners who join them for a two-week, all-expenses-paid, “Bye-bye-battleship” cruise, courtesy of billionaire, Jack Riley.

 

Halfway through the Battleship Boys’ warm and sunny cruise in the Gulf of Mexico, destination Cancún, nostalgia for the good old days runs smack into a modern-day crisis, when a Mexican drug cartel foils a DEA raid, takes hostages, and threatens to start killing them until the US meets its demands.

 

An elite Delta Force team lands on the battleship’s deck in the middle of the night, led by “Crazy Willie,” a badass USMC major. “CW’s” got a hairbrained scheme to snatch the hostages to safety and both Pentagon and White House approval to go for it—but he needs the old timers to join his team to make it work.

 

He asks for volunteers.

 

Everyone raises his hand.

                        "If you build it it will sink"​

 

Theme park ride designer Mike Sullivan has worked on some of the world’s most iconic theme park attractions; from Universal, to Disney, to Five Flags.

 

But he’s always dreamed of designing a ride based on the sinking of the RMS Titanic, and launching it - where else? - Las Vegas!

 

Currently unemployed, and faced with being trapped in a cubicle designing air conditioning systems for a construction company for the rest of his life, Mike’s wife, Gina, gives him an ultimatum: take a six-month sabbatical from “real” work to find the funding for the ride, or else get a real job and give up the Titanic forever.

 

With the help of a ragtag group of retired theme park designers, including his feisty Sicilian father-in-law, Mike builds a model of the ride and goes in search of funding. Aided by an unexpected angel investor, Mike and his team build the RMS Titanic 'ride' on the Vegas strip as a theme park attraction complete with an “Iceberg” hotel-casino.

 

But as it sails off on its maiden voyage, filled with VIPs and Hollywood celebrities, forces intent on sabotage threaten to sink the Titanic for good!
