Green Light for Red Dawn



It was a normal fall weekend in Spokane, Washington.  Then came the Saturday morning unlike any other.  First came the explosions, then the paratroopers.  Only at the last minute did most of the people of Spokane realize what was happening;  the United States was being invaded by North Korea.  The disturbance woke Jed Eckert, a Marine home from Iraq, and his younger brother Matt.  In an effort to follow their Dad’s orders to “go to the cabin,” they hop in Jed’s car, picking up stragglers along the way whilst dodging soldiers.  After a couple of days, their cabin is discovered and they must flee into the wilderness.  For Jed there is only one response: fight back.  Jed trains the ragtag group of young people into a team capable of war-trained resistance.  Meanwhile, Matt waits for the moment he can rescue his girlfriend, Erica.  But his desperation to do so may result in the complete ruin of this unusual group of teen heroes who have come to call themselves the Wolverines.
