A battalion of US troops try to help the French hold an outpost in Indo-China. Surrounded, outnumbered, and low on munitions, these men learn true grit to hold on until help can arrive.

G.I.'s on furlough in Berlin go out for a good time, but fall prey to a Nazi sympathizers, who drug and sneak them across enemy lines. They must fight their way back to freedom and vengeance.

“Behind Enemy Lines”
