La guerre ne fait aucun vainqueurs, seulement des survivants. La tuerie détruit autant ceux qui tuent que ceux qui sont tués ; parce qu'elle assassine la décence, le respect de soi-même et finalement la vie elle-même. L'histoire suit les pas d'un bataillon de jeunes soldats américains aux premiers jours de la Bataille d'Angleterre, à travers les violents combats en Italie et en France, jusqu'à la paix difficile, à Berlin.
