The only survivors of a night patrol in enemy territory are Lt. Hanley (Rick Jason) and a nervous young private named Wilder (played by Brandon DeWilde of Shane and Hud) fame). Having sustained a bad shoulder wound, Hanley is of little help when Wilder suddenly gets caught in quicksand. Worse still, the terrified private threatens to betray Hanley to the surrounding Germans in a desperate effort to save himself. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
