To fund the ailing war machine Hitler has sent countless condemned prisoners to loot a treasure rich island off the coast of Greece. A small force of resistance fighters battle against the brutal Austrian Commandant, Major Otto Hecht (Roger Moore) for their homes, their freedom and the lives of the POWs. The Achilles heel of the invading Germans is a secret submarine oil supply depot and the communications post on the top of Mount Athens. If they can destroy these heavily guarded German strongholds, the resistance will gain superiority! (Beyond Home Entertainment)
