Summary World War II combat veteran Leon Cooper embarks on what he considers his final mission, to preserve the hallowed ground of one of World War II's deadliest battlefields at Red Beach on Tarawa Island. The film documents Cooper's trip back to confirm the reports of the desecration of Red Beach, which is littered with piles of garbage, rusting debris and possible lost gravesites of servicemen still listed as missing in action and his efforts to clean up and restore this sacred battleground.
