Don Quix loves taking risks. When Don is caught AWOL with buddy Ken
Jackson, his dreams of flying are shattered, but he still manages
to become a sergeant radio truck operator in a fighter control
squadron. Ken is sent to a demolition unit.
During a baseball game in a French forest, Don narrowly escapes
a sniper's bullet. In Verviers, and Liege Belgium, he has daily
encounters with buzz bombs but suffers only minor cuts dodging
shrapnel. Using forged passes to visit a girlfriend; he freely
roams restricted areas when similarly-daring soldiers are
court-martialed.
But Sergeant Quix's jauntiness is tempered by tragic loss. His
reunion with Ken in Verviers is violently cut short. Another close
friend, Technical Sergeant Stanley Firestone, dies in a V-1 attack
while pulling a shift for a newly engaged radio man.
Meanwhile, Don begins a torrid love affair with Denise Vervier,
a beautiful Belgian seamstress far wiser than her 23 years.
Denise's husband was sent to a forced labor camp four years ago and
is presumed dead. When he unexpectedly returns, Don and Denise face
the most difficult decision of their lives.
