Synopsis:
While on jungle patrol, Lt. Rock is ambushed by Japanese soldiers. He is rescued by a native girl named Lohina. She promises to hide him in her village, but on the way the pair are repeatedly attacked by Japanese. Larry destroys an enemy tank, but he is injured. Lohina then leads the remaining enemy soldiers away, until Lt. Rock is found by his own troops.

Larry receives a medal for his actions, but he feels Lohina deserves it more. He believes that she is dead, so he returns to the spot where he last saw her. Lt. Rock is surprised, when he sees Lohina alive in the custody of the enemy soldiers. She is about to be killed, so Larry goes into action to save her. After dispatching the enemy troops, Larry and Lohina leave the area together.
