Synopsis:
The Unknown Soldier assumes the guise of a salesmen and is dropped into occupied France during the Spring of 1944. He meets up with a French resistance leader named Chat Noir. The leader was a former U.S. Army sergeant who was railroaded because he is black. Chat Noir and his group, the Nightingales, then help the Unknown Soldier in an attack of Fleur-Le-Duc. The attack is successful, but the Nazis regroup to take back their position.

Chat Noir gets the Unknown Soldier to safety after the latter is injured. He is upset that so many of his men have been killed. The Unknown Soldier then reveals that the attack was a feint to draw the German military away from Normandy, so that the D-Day Invasion could commence the following day.

The Unknown Soldier and Chat Noir then return to America where they become friends and confidants.
