In September 1943, the diverse group of fifty-three soldiers comprising a lead Platoon of the 36th Infantry Division (United States) anxiously await their upcoming Allied invasion of Italy on a beach near Salerno, Italy. A LCVP (United States) carries them to their objective during the pre-dawn hours, and the increasing danger of their situation is demonstrated when their young platoon leader, Lieutenant Rand (Robert Lowell), is wounded by a shell fragment that destroys half of his face. Platoon Sergeant Pete Halverson (Matt Willis) takes over command and orders Sgt. Eddie Porter (Herbert Rudley) to lead the men to the beach while he tries to find the company commander and confirm their orders.
