In the frigid heart of the French Alps during the final days of WWII, an American command ski patrol races against time and treacherous terrain to halt an enemy convoy—every second a battle for survival, every decision a step into the unknown.
During the Korean War in April 1951, a lieutenant and his platoon must eliminate an enemy squad holed up in a cave that threatens their plan to establish a spotter position on a strategic ridge. When they discover a vertical shaft leading into the cave—marked by a stray dog—the squad devises an unconventional approach to neutralize the threat and secure the position. A small-scale but decisive cave assault becomes the key to their mission's success.
A battle-hardened squad under Lieutenant Meers fights to secure a French town in the summer of 1944, learning to leverage artillery and air support instead of charging headlong into entrenched German positions. When one soldier, Vito, pushes too hard for a frontal assault and collapses from combat exhaustion, the Lieutenant makes the call to get him medical attention—a decision that saves his life and proves there's more than one way to win.
A drafted soldier struggles with paralyzing fear during combat in Italy, going through the motions of war while his buddies fight and die around him—until a harrowing night in a Nazi machine gun position forces him to confront what he's been running from. Written with grit and psychological honesty, "Goin' Thru the Motions" traces one man's painful journey from cowardice to the kind of courage that isn't about fearlessness, but about doing your job despite it.
