When stiff-necked Lieutenant Witt Stringfield (played by Adam Edgar) returns from the Korean War with expectations that all will be as he left it three years before, he finds a rude awakening. His three-year-old daughter Catherine May (Alia Margaret) treats him as an unwelcome stranger. When the two are left alone with her on his first night home, the young father who’s used to commanding situations and his adorable little girl butt heads. How this last skirmish of the Korean War unwinds is seen in tale of love, expectations and how the simplest act can bond two hearts for a lifetime.
