synopsis
In this episode, we learn that Sgt. Saunders (Vic Morrow) has a kid brother back home. We also learn that, much against the sergeant's wishes, his brother has joined the Army. Almost simultaneously, youthful private Jim Hummel (Randy Boone) is assigned to King Company. Profoundly affected by the fact that Hummel bears a striking resemblance to his brother, Saunders uncharacteristically lets his heart rule his head ,and goes out of his way to protect the rookie private from harm. This results in a great deal of resentment from the other men--and from Hummel himself.
