Synopsis:
On Christmas, Tomahawk and his men are ordered to cross a river at all costs. They try again and again but are driven back by enemy fire. Finally allowed to stand down, they learn that it was a decoy mission on the Delaware River, so that another band of soldiers, led by General Washington, could cross farther north and engage the British at Trenton.
