American jet pilots headed by Stack fly missions during the Korean conflict and find as many problems back at the base as in the air. With the wives living with their husbands on the base, the stress of the daily waiting begins to be too much for some couples. Stack is married to
reporter Gray and wants her to quit her job to wait every day with the other wives. In the end, she gives up her reporter job. Most of the action sequences are stock footage from the war, but the pilots' and wives' stories are simplistic and melodramatic.
