Determined to prove her worth to male colleagues and superiors, Casey (Lisa Eichhorn), a female Air Force lieutenant, volunteers to undergo a difficult and strenuous training exercise that simulates evasion of the enemy on a remote island. Together with her partner, Logan (Tom Skerritt), Casey reaches the goal -- and what should be the end of the exercise -- only to discover the simulation has gone off the rails due to the sadistic madman Gen. Becker (Anthony Zerbe).
