Overview:

Based on the events portrayed in the movie "The Glory Brigade" (1953). During reparations for a general attack, UN intelligence has troublesome reports concerning Korean People's Army (KPA) activities; specifically in an area concealed from UN reconnaissance aircraft. UN Command tasks a company from the Greek Brigade to slip through enemy lines, determine KPA intentions by investigating the area and report back. A platoon from the US 33rd Combat Engineer Battalion is assigned in a support role to ferry the Greeks across a river at the start of the operation. In the course of its mission, the Greek company is fragmented while the US platoon is nearly wiped out attempting to retrieve their heavy support weapons in a second crossing of the river. The American engineer platoon commander, LT Pryor and three remaining U.S. soldiers encounter a platoon-sized element of the Greek force, led by a LT Niklas. Even after it is discovered that the Greeks have nearly no ammunition, and under protest from LT Niklas, LT Pryor assumes command of the combined unit and leads the remnants in an attempt to complete the overall mission.
