Drake, according to press notes, penned the musical "in an effort to honor a generation of heroes who have lived for years in silence about the struggles they faced in the 1940s. This amazing generation moved forward after the hardships of a world war and never looked back."

The new musical follows the struggles of four friends after the events of Pearl Harbor unfold.
