April 1945. In order to help the US Navy with Kamikaze attacks, the US Army lands the 77th Infantry Division on the island of Ie Shima in what is supposed to be a quick victory. Instead the 77th finds itself stuck in place, unable to advance, fighting radical Japanese soldiers and perhaps the most fanatical Japanese civilians yet encountered in the war.
