Guadalcanal Diary (1943)
De film gaat over een groep mariniers van allerlei pluimage. Centraal staan een taaie, idiote ex-taxichauffeur met een hart van goud, een moedige officier, de kapelaan van de eenheid, de clown van de groep en een ruwe Mexicaanse held die op zoek is naar wraak voor zijn afgeslachte peloton.
