It is July 3, 1863. Corporal Seth Adams of the 124th New York Volunteers, who was shot through the breast on the second day of the Battle of Gettysburg, stumbles into a house behind Confederate lines.

Zinger Zook actually enjoys killing the enemy; Horace Jenkins rejoices in a holy war to end slavery; Eldred Spenser was an anti-war activist until last year; and Davey Kinkaid is in shock after shooting in the face an enemy soldier about his age. Seth simply believes in saving the Union his ancestors fought for. While the men await rescue, all except Zinger join together to perform some heroic and near-miraculous deeds. The epilogue includes a surprise ending
