Vic is assigned to another squad for a recon patrol that is quite dangerous and he has to deal with another sergeant who is quie disagreeable but they need to get along to make the mission work.
It makes for a different situation because Vic is not in charge and must help out rather than assuming authority and responsibility this time. The enemy's the same and the mission resembles previous ones. The fact that the other sergeant played by Albert Salmi is crazy and foolhardy makes the situation that much worse.
An extremely tense episode, in which the two men in conflict makes for arresting drama, leading to life and death heroics as they hide out in a German command post, and Salmi emerges a hero after all, while Vic learns plenty of lessons in a very well-written story.
