P L O T

"The Fighting 69th" is a First World War regiment of
mostly New York-Irish soldiers. Amongst a cocky crew,
perhaps the cockiest is Jerry Plunkett, a scrappy fellow
who looks out only for himself. The officers and
non-coms of the regiment do their best to instill
discipline in Plunkett, and the chaplain, Father Duffy,
tries to make Plunkett see the greater good, all to no
avail. Behind the lines or in the trenches, Plunkett
acts selfishly and cowardly, eventually costing the
lives of many of his fellow soldiers. A final act of
cowardice leads to terrible consequences, but Plunkett
sees in them a chance to redeem himself...if only he
can.
