Coming from football fields in the Adelaide Hills Allan James, and his mates, volunteer for army service in the First World War. In Egypt hard training during the day across desert sands in the burning heat was hard work.

The owner of the bar is a shady character who employs the lads to undertake shady dealings. But soon the troops moved off to war trenches in Gallipoli and then further afield to Belgium and Northern France. Allan James suffers mentally as his mates, and his first love, are taken from him by the bombs and bullets of the enemy. Participating in deadly fighting, having bombs fall all around, and seeing what happens to men
