This sequel to the acclaimed cult book is now an essential motion picture. Darryl Ponicsan's debut book, The Last Detail, was called among the finest of the year and generally acclaimed, catapulting him to fame when it was initially published. The story of two career sailors given to escort a young seaman from Norfolk to the naval jail in Portsmouth, New Hampshire - and of the mayhem that ensues - was converted to an award-winning movie starring Jack port Nicholson. Last Flag Traveling, place 34 years after the incidents of The Last Detail, includes the same cherished individuals - Billy Bad-Ass Buddusky, Mule Mulhall, and Meadows - to reprise the same quest, but under very different circumstances. Now middle-aged, Meadows seeks out his ex - captors in their civilian lives to help him bury his child, a Marine wiped out in Iraq, in Arlington Country wide Cemetery. When he discovers that the specialists have advised him a rest about the circumstances of his son's death, he decides, by using both others, to transport him home to Portsmouth. Therefore begins the quest, focused around a solemn quest, but, as in the first publication, a protest against injustice and special event of life, too, simultaneously irreverent, funny, profane, and deeply moving. Last Flag Traveling is currently a significant movie, aimed by Richard Linklater and starring Bryan Cranston, Steve Carell, and Laurence Fishburne.
