Ron Kovic werd geboren op 4 juli 1946, de Amerikaanse nationale feestdag. Hij groeide op in een patriottische familie. Op school blinkt hij uit in sport en op 18-jarige leeftijd neemt hij vrijwillig dienst bij het marinekorps, wetend dat hij als getrainde vechtjas meteen naar Vietnam zal gestuurd worden.
Nee, helaas is Born on the Fourth of July nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
