The story is about the everyday life of a wing commander and the decisions he must make regardless of his wife, friends, or extenuating circumstances. Col. Jim Caldwell (Rock Hudson) has a new task of shaping up a strategic air force wing during the '60s that is not up to snuff. On top of this, he is newly married, and his wife (Mary Peach) does not know what she is in for. Can he maintain friendships or at least discipline when he, as you would expect, must turn ruthless in his endeavor?
This movie is more than surface entertainment. As Col. Caldwell learns how to manage his job, we also learn something about the human condition, and soon we are part of the story.
