ATTACK!

In 1944, an American Infantry company sets up an artillery observation post, but tensions between Captain Cooney and Lieutenant Costa run high. During the closing months of WWII, a National Guard Infantry Company is assigned the task of setting up artillery observation posts in a strategic area. Lieutenant Costa knows that Captain Cooney is in command only because of 'connections' he had made state-side. Costa has serious doubts concerning Cooney's ability to lead the group. When Cooney sends Costa and his men out, and refuses to re-enforce them, Costa swears revenge. Their commander is a politically ambitious colonel who's national guard unit has been activated for World War II. He has to coddle and keep an eye on Cooney, whose father is a big shot in the unnamed southern state he comes from. Only Cooney is an incompetent and a coward. That's causing problems up and down the ranks.
