An American Story aka After the Glory

Six World War II veterans return to their small Texas town as heroes. As they readjust to life after the war, they find things have changed, and a corrupt mayor and brutal sheriff now run the town. Despite dire warnings, they begin a risky campaign to unseat the local government, with Meade, a commanding officer in the war, their designated ringleader.

But when Meade's ambitious wife and influential father-in-law pressure him to align with the status quo, they realize they're facing another battle for freedom at home. Based on actual events that took place in Tennessee, the locale has been changed to Texas, but the heart of the story remains.

Starring Tom Sizemore, Brad Johnson, and Kathleen Quinlan.
