The story
In November 1942, United States Army Private Witt goes AWOL from his unit to live among the carefree Melanesian natives in the South Pacific.
They march into the interior of the island, and along the way encounter natives and evidence of the ongoing Japanese presence.
When they are fired upon, Keck reaches for a grenade on his belt and accidentally pulls the pin, then throws himself back on the grenade so that he will be the only one killed by the blast.
