A gang of bully-boys, service criminals and murderers. After a series of misfortunes Alan Saffron and his mate, Ken Bickers, find themselves thrown into the group. Saffron only wanted to get in some real action in the war. Instead he found himself in a god-forsaken part of the jungle in Eastern Africa and in charge of this ill-disciplined and dangerous squad.
