Durago struggles through his plebe year, and his poor performance leads to restriction over Christmas leave. During this time, Master Chief Strong helps the young midshipman learn to identify with his father's sacrifice, his naval heritage, and the challenges of academy life. Under his guidance, Durago grows into a model midshipman.
In the spring of his senior year, however, he is accused of harassment. Concerned that he will be kicked out of the academy, Durago is forced to realize that he has not completely dealt with his father's death, including nightmares of being a POW during times of stress. He leans on his roommate, James "Slim" Warren, and his budding relationship with JAG officer Lieutenant Junior Grade Jan Meyer.
The Recipient's Son highlights all the major facets and phases of life at the US Naval Academy. Equally important, it forces the reader to consider questions about leadership, concepts of honor, and the balance between service and personal sacrifice. It is a story of a young naval officer's coming to terms with his legacy as the son of a celebrated war hero.
The Recipient's Son is a stirring tale of a young man coming to grips with the heroism of his father and overcoming his self-doubts to accept the challenge of serving his country on his own terms.
