Slam and Shorty are hired as bodyguards for Clyde Winthrop. During a barfight, Clyde is killed. Slam provides information on the killers to the police, but the men aren't found. He suspects that the killers have joined the French Foreign Legion, so he and Shorty join up.
When they arrive in the desert they find one of the killers is their sergeant. He sends them on a suicide mission. Slam is captured by arabs and also finds the other killer, Tony Caputo, held captive. Slam overpowers the arabs and escapes with Caputo.
