May, 1945. Hitler was dead, the Third Reich was little more than smoking rubble, and no GI wanted to be the last man killed in action against the Nazis. But for cigar-chewing, and hard-charging Lieutenant Jack Lee and his men, there was one more mission: rescue fourteen prominent French prisoners held in an SS-guarded castle high in the Alps.
