What Too Late the Hero is

You're a reluctant US Navy shore patrolman, stuck on a South Pacific island in 1942. But a risky mission behind enemy lines throws you into the jungle with a band of British commandos. Aldrich focuses on the moral ambiguities of wartime. One wonders who the real heroes are.
