Synopsis:
Sgt. Rock reminds Bulldozer to follow orders after the soldier tries to sacrifice himself in fights with the enemy. When a rookie lieutenant takes command over Rock, he is forced to obey ill-considered orders in order to make a point to his men. The lieutenant walks into an enemy ambush alone. Rock is forced to disobey orders in order to save the officer.
The lieutenant plans to demote Rock after the incident, but another enemy ambush interrupts them. Rock is trapped by enemy fire. Despite Rock ordering his men to leave him behind, Bulldozer and the lieutenant rescue him. The officer reconsiders his plan to demote Rock, and the sergeant retakes command of Easy.
