This episode presents a World War II drama set in 1944 in Monte Cassino, Italy. A rifle squad of eight GI's pinned down by German gunfire are ordered to withdraw from the frontline position they hold by nightfall. One of them, Small, is trapped and must wait until nightfall to join the unit or get the help of his buddies to get out safely before then. Eventually, the embittered combat soldier, Collucci, disobeys orders and sets out to get Small. On the way, he wipes out the enemy machine gun unit. When Collucci finds Small, he is already dead.
