Synopsis: The Japanese take refuge in a cave, facing flame throwing tanks and other tactics designed by the Marines to box them in. Their leader reminds them that they will fight to the death, taking ten Americans each with them.

The Japanese commander decides that each man will strap a grenade to himself and detonate it rather than surrender.

Synopsis: As Union forces go marching confidently out of Washington D.C., each soldier reminds himself that he has enlisted only for 3 months, and the war should be over within 60 days -- or so they think.
