WWII yarn, with Stuart Whitman out to rescue a German scientist from both the Nazis and the advancing Russians. McBee: John Collin. Wilcox: Martin Jarvis. Von Heinken: Pinkas Braun. Hessel: Gunther Neutze. Karen: Margit Saad. Griggs: Patrick Jordan. Directed by Walter Grauman.

This WW II action picture, filmed in Munich, stars Whitman as an American officer who joins British soldiers trying to rescue a German scientist from the Nazis. They infiltrate Germany, take the scientist and several refugees, but are chased by SS officers and Russian tanks. The script is laden with cliches, but the director handles the action sequences well. Performances are adequate.
