The railway bridge, which Nicholson and his men are forced to build across the River Kwai, becomes Colonel Nicholson's means of preserving his organization and inspiring his men with the will to survive. A triumph of planning and strategic vision, the bridge is a symbol of Nicholson's humane and rational leadership even as it becomes a target of the British Commando team sent to destroy it.
