Korea: See-saw Fight Rages For Strategic Peaks. U.S. Marines helicopter, HR-69, backs up to fly low over some soldiers. Two men latch a large hook hanging from the chopper so that it connects to some sort of equipment (multiple rocket launcher???). The helicopter airlifts this item and flies away. Another helicopter (HR-5) lifts off with soldiers aboard. A few choppers fly over the hills of Korea (one view is from inside a helicopter, part of one soldier's head in the frame, looking out). The helicopters drop off the soldiers and their equipment. The marines position and load the rocket launcher(s) and let out a barrage of fire. Tanks rolls on dusty road. VS on "Old Baldy" show rocket shells, destruction, dead enemy soldiers. G.I.'s sleep (nap) in uniform with guns beside them.
