Yank staff correspondent describes waking dawn in Tunisia and attempting to reach the front by hitching a ride. After delays, a colonel's jeep ferries him toward HQ past desert camps and a spaced chow line. He sleeps in a foxhole before a morning convoy carries ammunition toward the front with Lt Porter driving.
The narrator recalls moving through a bomb torn road with tank tracks and craters while locating advancing troops. Major Michael Popowski Jr discusses ammo shortages as Lt Porter notes mortar scarcity. Nazi planes dive near the ridge as P-40 fighters engage, and a foxhole moment frames the perilous scene.
