Overview
This classic war movie stars George Peppard and Michael York in a gripping tale of danger, intrigue, and a deadly secret that could determine the fate of millions. U.S. Officer Colonel Hugh Kelso has inside knowledge about the imminent and highly secretive D-Day Invasion. When he washes ashore behind enemy lines, special agents Harry Martineau and Sara Drayton of the Allied Forces must stage a covert rescue to save his life – or end it – before the Germans acquire the valuable information he possesses.
