Tour of Duty on CBS

It's Vietnam 1967 and veteran sergeant Zeke Anderson leads the young, new recruits of Bravo Company as they confront the terrifying reality of jungle combat. `Tour of Duty,' which marked the first time network television had attempted a weekly series based on the Vietnam War, addressed the conflict from the soldiers' point of view. Battle scenes were bloody and several main characters died, but the series focused on the bonds formed between comrades in harm's way.
