"Han River Death Trap" follows a lanky, wisecracking private named Foxhole and his buddy Shep as they navigate a dangerous patrol behind enemy lines during the Korean War, where a Red patrol threatens to outnumber them three-to-one. "Leatherneck Jack" features a Marine who becomes entangled with a beautiful woman during wartime, though she urges him to join her and flee before enemy forces close in; later, an American woman named Margaret Pierce is discovered alive despite the apparent American retreat, revealing she had been ordered to report for evacuation with the British Army in Seoul.

Sergeant Sam Shores volunteers for a desperate mission behind enemy lines to locate and capture General Wing Tao, the ruthless commander leading fanatical Chinese forces against the Marines holding their position in Korea. Infiltrating deep into Red territory with his trusted buddies Arkansan Woods and the resourceful South Korean private Duck Sing, Shores uses cunning and firepower to reach the enemy command post—but getting back out alive with their prisoner proves just as dangerous as the mission itself.
