Wounded soldiers from European Theater of Operation arrive by Air Evac C-54 aircraft to LaGuardia Airport, New York, where they are greeted by families and friends during World War II. Film opens with view through main cargo door into cabin of a military C-54 transport parked on the ramp at LaGuardia Airport, New York. The cabin is configured for air evacuation. Inside, wounded American soldiers are seen in a rack of litters stacked four high. A man in civilian clothes holds a clip board and speaks to soldiers on the airport ramp. A man drives a fork lift to the cargo door and lowers two of the wounded on litters to the ground, where waiting family members reach down to kiss and embrace them. Photographers take pictures and Army officers welcome the wounded. Media technicians set up microphones near on soldier who is with a woman. They record as the woman and soldier embrace and speak to each other. After momentary break, scene shifts back to cargo door of the C-54, where several Army soldiers watch the activities below where women greeting two more wounded are being photographed and recorded as they are reunited. The next scene is in a hangar, where a wounded soldier is sitting up in his litter with wife or sweetheart beside him and a man and woman behind him. Two microphones are set up next to them. The young couple kiss and embrace. Closeup of them.
