The members of Bravo Squad, following their return to North America, are driven in a limousine to the stadium with the Cowboys' PR representative Josh (Ben Platt) and film producer Albert Brown (Chris Tucker), who is in the process of securing a film deal for the squad. A flashback reveals that Billy joined the army after destroying the car of his older sister Kathryn's (Kristen Stewart) boyfriend, who left her after she was in a car accident that required multiple facial reconstruction procedures. Arriving at the stadium, the group is greeted by numerous anxious fans who express gratitude for their actions and blindly support the Iraq War. During a press conference, Billy spots one of the cheerleaders, Faison (Makenzie Leigh), smiling at him. After the conference, Faison walks over to Billy and starts up a conversation with him. He tells her how it feels weird to be honored for the worst day of his life. She offers some optimistic insight and they begin a romance.

Trama
I soldati della squadra Bravo, di cui fa parte il 19enne Billy Lynn, hanno compiuto una coraggiosa azione di guerra in Iraq, immortalata per caso dalle telecamere di un tg. Trasformati di colpo in eroi nazionali, vengono richiamati in patria per due settimane di Victory Tour (interviste in tv, visita alla Casa Bianca, comizi pubblici aperti dal sermone di un predicatore), che culminano nell'apparizione come ospiti d'onore durante il halftime show alla tradizionale, popolarissima partita di football del Giorno del Ringraziamento. Il film raccontato in prima persona da Billy Lynn, ci mostra attraverso dei flashback cosa è realmente accaduto a questo gruppo di soldati, una realtà sulla guerra che contrasta con quella percepita dal pubblico americano.
