  Summary

  Jeremy Blake brings a camera to basic training as a joke.
  He never stops filming.
  Not Lucy Chen, sixteen, stubborn, and way out of her depth.
  Not Tim Bradford, same rank, steady, and slowly becoming something more to her.
  Not the deployments, the injuries, the quiet moments, or the life they somehow build in between.
  What starts as chaos on camera turns into something else entirely.
