Wilderness Soldier Jeff Affrunti

After his narrow escape from captivity in the Afghan desert, Marine Corporal Joey Giamatti returns home to his wife. Now suffering from severe PTSD, his marriage is failing and his hopes of keeping a job look bleak. The one bright light, and what has become his own form of therapy, is a social media channel where he teaches survivalist, military skills to his subscribers. After his military history and reputation as a hero earn him a huge audience, he finds himself taking on increasingly dangerous backwoods adventures to maintain and grow his subscribers. His current idea: Film his seven day adventure facing a vast, untouched wilderness region nicknamed ""The Survivalists' Mount Everest"" equipped with only 10 items of survival his subscribers will choose. Joey knows his skills are up to the task. What he doesn't know is that he'll find himself in the fight of his life when he stumbles upon the surviving passengers of a downed aircraft that was transporting a dangerous group of murderous prisoners, and a female federal marshal who is now their hostage.
