In 1942, the Guadalcanal Islands in the South Pacific were picturesque. American soldiers landed on the island, hoping to recover it from the Japanese invading army. The US and Japanese forces launched a large-scale battle on this small island. The arduous task of snatching the 210 positions controlled by the Japanese army fell on the "Charlie Infantry Company". For this reason, Captain Staro had a dispute with the commanding lieutenant colonel Tal. Tal believes that all soldiers should move forward bravely and show off their usual training skills, while Staro believes that, driven by Tal's ambition, the soldiers of the whole company will embark on a path of no return. However, Staro was finally dismissed from his post, and the soldiers still had to participate in the "just war" in which the country participated. In the bloody battle that lasted for several months, the infantry company experienced the baptism of blood and fire. Everything inevitably falls on them.
