Synopsis: The newly formed 2nd Marine Raider Battalion face a frightening first mission during the early days of WWII: to rout the much larger Japanese garrison on Makin Island.

Thorwald, and Noah Beery Jr. as Cpl. Kurt Richter. Keep an eye out for a young Robert Mitchum in one of his earliest roles as the swaggering 'Pig-Iron' Matthews!
