Synopsis:
Johnny dreams that he is a World War I pilot, whose mission is to destroy an enemy bridge. His plan is shot down, his mission fails, and Johnny himself hits the ground. Upon impact Johnny awakens from the dream.
At the next mission briefing, Johnny is ordered to attack a bridge that is identical to the one in his dream. The events of his dream begin coming true as his squadron is delayed, leaving only himself to destroy the target. An enemy fighter shoots down Johnny's plane. He tries to aim it at the bridge, but he misses.
After bailing out, Johnny catches the tail of the enemy fighter. He forces the other plane down with his body. The fighter destroys the bridge. Johnny jumps off in time to open his parachute. Johnny is then picked up by his squadron.
