Charlie (Richard Bakalyan) becomes a paratrooper, but, while serving in North Africa, he mistakenly kills one of his fellow U.S. soldiers, who is masquerading as a Nazi in order to wipe out a nest of the enemy. The action moves to Sicily and then to Salerno. Shunned by his fellow soldiers, including his childhood friend Ace (Jack Hogan), Charlie is forced to prove himself when it is left up to him to transport a generator across an open road in full view of Nazi attackers.

Audience Member Interesting premise; cheap production. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Basic shoot'em-up, blow'em-up combat film with interesting characters and non-stop action. Not bad for a motion picture nobody's ever seen with actors nobody's ever heard of. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
