As Hawk Clarke fights for God and country, when the platoon he leads narrowly escapes from the German Panzer battalion that has them surrounded, he also learns the greatest freedom of all - the courage it takes to free the human spirit. Can he break free from the cage he feels his life has become in time to help an old woman release a miracle?. Almost as if torn from today's headlines comes the riveting story of patriotism and courage, love and comradeship, as told in The Warmth of a Song.
