The main story, "A Hatred Dies!", follows two survivors of a bloody battle on Hill 133 who must confront each other when an infantry company marches into town. Captain Harrigan discovers that the vicious soldier Hank Kramer is using his position as an excuse to continue killing, prompting Harrigan to risk his men's lives to stop Kramer before he causes more bloodshed. The soldiers endure intense combat involving flamethrowers and machine gun fire as they pursue the enemy, with Harrigan determined to prevent Kramer from furthering his murderous rampage even at great cost to the unit.
