Colonel Logan's paratroopers undertake a dangerous raid on the enemy stronghold at Kumjom, where they must eliminate four key guard points at a launching platform while battling fierce Red Army resistance. The operation escalates into intense combat on a mountain of death, with personal rivalries and conflicts emerging among the soldiers even as they fight for survival against overwhelming enemy forces.

A tough paratrooper named Joe Snyder uses his fists to bully his way through camp until a judo-trained soldier named Peters stands up to him—but when an ambush in Korean woods leaves Snyder badly wounded, Peters faces a choice that could change everything. As the two men fight their way back through enemy territory with their sergeant, Snyder discovers that respect and friendship can't be beaten into people, and that it's never too late to become the kind of man worth saving.
