Bataan (1943)
Während der japanischen Invasion der Philippinen im Jahr 1942 erhalten Captain Henry Lassiter, Sergeant Bill Dane und eine gemischte Gruppe amerikanischer Soldaten den Befehl, eine strategisch wichtige Brücke zu zerstören und zu halten, um die japanischen Streitkräfte aufzuhalten und General MacArthur Zeit zu geben, Bataan zu sichern. Als die japanischen Soldaten mit dem Wiederaufbau der Brücke und dem Vormarsch beginnen, kämpft die Gruppe nicht nur mit Hunger, Krankheit und Beschuss, sondern auch mit der Gewissheit, dass wahrscheinlich keine Verstärkung unterwegs ist.
