À la frontière américano-mexicaine, un avion en mauvais état se pose dans un champ. Lee Arnold, le pilote de l'avion, remet les armes au capitaine Pancho Ramirez, chef des insurgés Colorados contre le président mexicain Madero. En guise de remerciement, Ramirez lui offre une ceinture pleine d'or. Se rendant chez un forgeron pour y passer la nuit, Arnold fait la connaissance de Fina dont il s'éprend. Le lendemain, le village est attaqué par les troupes de Ramirez, saccageant, tuant et violant. À proximité, Pancho Villa, qui a été témoin de la scène, envoie ses hommes attaquer les troupes de Ramirez et les fait prisonniers. Mais, peu après, Fierro, son lieutenant, les abat. Horrifié par une telle barbarie, Arnold propose un marché à Villa. Petit à petit, une amitié se crée entre les deux hommes.

Yugoslav partisans grimly crop the hair of a village quintet of women believed to have consorted with the occupational Nazis. Four, for various reasons, have indeed - and their seducer is a lone, swaggering sergeant whom the partisans briskly emasculate. Escorted out of town by the sheepish Nazis, the forlorn ladies link up, patriotically and romantically, with a band of tough mountain guerrillas.

Opening remarks by Charlton Heston and Mickey Rooney are used to establish the film’s direction and mood. Introductory scenes quickly dissolve into one laced with sounds of thunder and artillery fire. The setting is atop Niagara Falls where waters cascade over the falls’ edge. Superimposed in the haze are dissolving scenes of American conflicts from the American Revolutionary War through Desert Storm.

In Britain, in the spring of 1944, Allied forces are preparing for the D-Day invasion. Among them are Major John Reisman (Lee Marvin), an OSS officer; his commander, Regular Army Major General Sam Worden (Ernest Borgnine); and his former commander Colonel Everett Dasher Breed (Robert Ryan). Early in the film, the personalities of the three men are shown to clash and the characters of the individualistic Reisman and the domineering Breed are established. Reisman is aided by his friend, the mild-mannered Major Max Armbruster (George Kennedy).
