As the platoon ships out to the Korean front, Shayne and Don will discover whether grit, loyalty, and the heat of combat can finally bridge the gap between them.

What starts as kitchen duty becomes their shot at turning the tables.

Combat engineers in Korea are the unsung backbone of the war effort—mocked by infantrymen as mere builders, but when a Bailey bridge must span the treacherous Kwansong River in spring 1952, Crewson and his unit discover that holding the line against enemy attacks, collapsing dams, and relentless Chinese assaults demands just as much courage and sacrifice as any frontline battle. As they fight to complete and defend their bridge against waves of enemy fire, the engineers prove that sometimes the real fighting happens at the bridgehead.
