After distinguishing himself in combat on Guadalcanal, Marine Sgt. Jack Connell is called back to Washington,DC, to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor. While on a warbond selling tour, he falls in love with Peggy Sanford, a public relations woman. Peggy, whose fiancé was killed in the war, initially resists Jack's advances, but she agrees to marry him when he promises not to volunteer for active duty. For a time, Jack is content to live on an Army base with Peggy and train raw recruits for combat; but he begins to think of himself as a slacker when news comes that an old buddy has been killed on Bougainville.
