Lieutenant Corby, Sergeant Mac and Privates Fletcher and Sidney are in the woods somewhere behind enemy lines after their plane goes down. Although Mac in particular does not fully trust Corby, blaming him for their predicament, they have no other option but to follow his orders as the ranking personnel and only officer. Corby guesstimates that they are about six miles from the line and that there is a river nearby which flows downstream past the line. They can only believe that there is no rescue team looking for them, and that the enemies know they are still alive somewhere in the woods in their territory. Corby's plan is for them to head toward where he believes the river to be, build a raft, then wait for nightfall under the cover of darkness when they would drift down the river to safety. What happens to the collective is largely affected by who they are individually as people and soldiers. Corby is the type who takes the safe course of action. Mac is the career soldier, one who wants to seize upon opportunity for the greater war good. Fletcher is the quiet soldier who dutifully obeys orders, but not without fear. And Sidney is slowly unraveling in his shell shocked state. But what happens to them is also affected by who and what they encounter along the way, chief among these unknowns being what looks to be an enemy airfield commanded by a general, and small group of young women they believe are gathering food to feed the enemy officers at the airfield.
