Summary
Young marines on a WWII tour of duty learn that 'war is hell' in this graphic, unflinching and honest drama of men in combat. The movie marked a real breakthrough in American war picture production by taking pains to show the terror on both sides. After a gory battle to take the beach on a Japanese-held island in the Pacific, Captain MacDonald asks Sergeant Honeywell to lead a squad on a perilous journey deep into the jungle to find the enemy's stronghold
