Summary: Rocky (Alan Ladd) thinks he may have been the cause of his commanding officer's death in the country of Tunisia. He visits Captain Daniels' widow (Donna Reed) out of guilt and he falls for her. She also falls for him and encourages him to attend West Point. While there, he faces a severe disciplinary action and may be court-martialled.

In Audie's first movie, he has a small part as a cadet roommate, Thomas, and appears in several scenes with Alan Ladd. Although his role is small in this film, Audie achieved his first critical write-up: "Audie Murphy makes his debut and does right well for himself. You'll recognize him. He's the one with the southern drawl." Paul Picerni, who later plays Valentino in TO HELL AND BACK, also makes his film debut with Audie.
