Publisher's Synopsis
Sam Gifford (Robert Wagner) is an arrogant landowner in the Deep South. After he is drafted into the army his lack of humility falls foul of his sergeant (Broderick Crawford), who begins a mission to break his arrogant conscript. Gifford manages, however, to find inner-strength and humility after he rescues a fellow soldier (Buddy Ebsen) and begins to stand up to the vicious sergeant.
