In Chu Lai you'll see views of Ricker's camp with a sign, "Burke's Bandits -- The Smallest Unit with the Biggest Job", cranes and bulldozers on the beach, LST-1177 loading trucks and equipment, and footage of 9th Engr. Bn. buildings and signs.
You'll see footage filmed while driving through Tam Ky and the surrounding area, men at various job-sites: roads, bridges, and a blown culvert. You'll see them hauling a crane on a trailer through deep mud, and explosions close-by along the road. There's film of damaged trucks, tents full of holes and other results of an enemy mortar attack, and at one point you'll see Marines and civilians gathered around a dead VC lying on the road. The movie concludes with footage filmed at Chu Lai Airbase of aircraft taking off and landing.
