Synopsis:
An enemy plane attacks the crew of the Haunted Tank. Rick, Arch, and Slim are all wounded in the attack. Jeb heads for the hospital to get help for his crew. On the way he meets up with Sgt. Rock on patrol with Easy Company. Rock takes out an enemy pillbox, but Wildman and Ice Cream Soldier are wounded. Rock joins Jeb in the tank to carry the wounded out.
When they reach the field hospital, Rock is informed that the medics are moving out because of enemy fire. He forces the doctor to examine the wounded men. They need additional medical attention, so the doctor tells Rock and Jeb to bring them to the location of the new hospital.
Rock and Jeb reach the location before the medical convoy. However, the site is occupied by enemy forces. The two soldiers destroy the enemy opposition, allowing the hospital to be setup and their men to be given medical attention.
