Summary
It's December 1944. Easy Company holds the line in the Ardennes near Bastogne, a task the Toccoa paratroopers are seeing far more difficult to tackle due to a lack of proper resources. Surrounded by the enemy and suffering from heavy casualties, any chance of hope looks bleak for the Screaming Eagles. Still, through the artillery shellings, the paratroopers have survived this far thanks to one of their own.
Eugene Roe, Easy's soft-spoken Cajun medic, is feeling the brunt of the war the most. He is on the verge of succumbing to combat fatigue from treating wounded soldiers and is running dangerously low on medical supplies. He often puts himself in harm's way to provide the best care, a method that's worked for him since the start of the war, however its slowly beginning to take a toll. While on a supply run to Bastogne, Eugene meets a beautiful nurse who seems to understand him better than any of the soldiers he’s fighting besides, resulting in the two falling in love. But Eugene's biggest challenge will be facing the harsh reality of war, both for soldiers and others alike. Will he prevail and not succumb to the stress to keep himself and the soldiers together? Morphine, scissors and bandages are mandatory.
