They fought for their honor.

Adapted from Van Van Praag's novel, Combat, this intense war story explores the many layers of the conflict of war, both internally and externally. Lieutenant Benson (Robert Ryan) and Sergeant Montana (Aldo Ray) are two soldiers trying to deal with the shock and devastation of the Korean War without losing their lives - or their minds. No two men can deal with such atrocities in the same way, and the savage ordeal reaches new levels of complexity as the men struggle to cope with the horror of it all.
