Synopsis:
Sgt. Rock takes a small team into the field in an attempt to capture a German prisoner. Rock's team is wounded, so he sends them back to base while he checks out a farm house alone. After shooting down an enemy plane, Rock discovers an abandoned baby inside the farmhouse. Rock takes the baby with him as he continues on his mission.

Between skirmishes with the enemy Rock is forced to feed the baby and change his diapers. After taking out an enemy tank, Rock meets a French woman, who had been a German prisoner. When he turns the child over to her, the baby pulls off her disguise.

Rock discovers that the woman is really an SS officer. Rock takes the man prisoner. He returns to base with his prisoner and turns the baby over to the medics for care.
