Force 10 from Navarone
In 1943, Major Keith Mallory and Sergeant Donovan "Dusty" Miller from British Commandos are sent to find and eliminate Nicolai, a German spy who previously betrayed the Navarone mission to the Germans and is now believed to have successfully infiltrated the Yugoslav Partisans as "Captain Lescovar". To get to Yugoslavia, the two men pair with "Force 10", an American sabotage unit led by US Army Rangers Lieutenant Colonel Mike Barnsby and steal a bomber. They are joined by Weaver, a Medical Corps sergeant arrested by the Military Police, and escape, only to be shot down by the Luftwaffe. Only Barnsby, Mallory, Miller, Weaver, and Lieutenant Doug Reynolds (Angus MacInnes) escape the crippled plane.
