Synopsis:
While returning to the front from the aid station Sgt. Rock's jeep is destroyed by an enemy tank. General Alex Bentley attempts to come to his aid, but Bentley is a desk general and inadequate as a field leader. Bentley is shot, so Rock has to take out the tank himself.

Wounded, Bentley tells Rock to take his stars into action, since he can't do it himself. Rock puts on the General's stars and helmets and leads a unit against more enemy tanks. When headquarters radios the unit, Rock claims to be General Bentley. He is then ordered to hold position until Easy Company arrives.
