When the platoon is ordered to hold a strategic depression called Devil's Pocket against a massive enemy breakthrough, Rogers and Wilde scout ahead as the tension between duty and Wilde's mysterious reluctance to lead comes to a head.

Biff Barnes and Smokey Walsh catch a lucky break when Sergeant Kennedy assigns them to retrieve the unit's misdirected mail from a forward position—but their simple errand turns into a harrowing ordeal when enemy fire forces their jeep off the road and straight into the hands of Communist troops. Captured and pressed into service by the enemy, the two marines must rely on quick thinking and nerve to turn the tables, sabotage an enemy mortar position, and make their escape—only to face a reckoning back at camp that's almost as dangerous as the firefight they survived.
