NEVER TO OLD TO CRY tells the moving story of six young Marines in World War II. The Marines' friendship begins with their induction physicals and carries them through boot camp, across the ocean, and into the horrors of war. In the midst of the terrible battles for the Pacific islands, they share fear and courage, tears and laughter, and a desperate hope to return to their homes.

NEVER TO OLD TO CRY reveals another side of the struggle as well, following the members of one proud Japanese family and their tremendous sacrifices.
