Storyline

After surviving a massacre in Malmedy, a location behind the German army in Europe, four American soldiers with only one weapon rescue the British pilot Oberon Winley (Kirby Heyborn) in a tree and they move together, trying to reach the allied forces and save a great number of allied soldiers from a German attack with the information got by Winley in his flight. While marching, each soldier discloses inner secrets to the rest of the group.



Short Review

I had read Harry Yeide's excellent 'The Tank Killers: A History of America's World War II Tank Destroyer Force' and thought the screenwriter could possibly have lifted an incident from his book. Unfortunately, I saw a Hollywood 'woke' delusion that has no historical foundation. A great disappointment.
