Last Stand for Easy!
Storyline
Sgt Rock always takes point to protect his guys, diving through hedgerows, attacking derelict tanks. The Captain radios to "play coach on the sidelines". When Rock's wounded, he sends guys forward - and they're killed. The Captain pulls him back: his experience is too valuable to lose. Rock works as a clerk handing out ordnance! But a Nazi tank invades the post and blasts away. Rock scrambles for a bazooka and the Captain hands him a rocket. Rock saves the day - and the Captain sends him back to the front line.
