The film opens with shots of the London streets in late afternoon, as people begin their commute home. The narrator reminds the audience that these people are part of the greatest civilian army the world has ever known, and are going to join their respective service before London's "nightly visitor" arrives. Listening posts are stationed as far away as the coastline and the "white fingers" of searchlights touch the sky.

Cette contribution à l'effort de guerre américain, réalisée en Technicolor, est une sorte de poème impressionniste faisant une description minutieuse de la position géographique des lieux et surtout des conditions de vie des soldats. Avec une équipe du Signal Corp., Huston se rendit pendant l'automne et l'hiver 1942 dans les îles Aléoutiennes, point de départ des raids américains sur les bases japonaises de Attu et de Kiska. C'était un archipel balayé par des tempêtes continuelles dont les images donnent une vision terrifiante des conditions de vie des soldats et d'atterrissage des avions. Par cette description humaine, Huston montre sa profonde admiration, non pour la guerre en elle-même mais pour le courage des hommes qui y étaient mêlés.
