Plots(1)
Grim epic American war movie about the Pacific Campaign, starring Richard Widmark as a former teacher who is now a Lieutenant leading his Marines into battle on a heavily-fortified enemy island. Their objective is a Japanese rocket site in the island's interior, and the combat-packed story follows the squadron's progress as the Lieutenant tries to transform them into a cohesive fighting unit.
