Synopsis:
Hop Harrigan and Tank Tinker are shot down near the shores of the Persian Gulf. Hop crashes the plane in a sand dune near a dried river bed. The pilots and their passenger Colonel Jack Lamont fall under the fire of an enemy patrol. However, Tank uses the plane's propeller to dig under the dune where a deposit of clay is holding back a large water supply. When the clay is removed, the river fills with water. The pilots then sail downstream to safety, using an empty fuel tank as a makeshift boat.
