In Libya in 1942, Captain Alex Foster (Burton), an intelligence officer with the British Army, allows himself to be captured
by a German Afrika Korps convoy transporting British prisoners, pretending to be injured. Once integrated with the prisoners,
remnants of a commando force and a medical unit, Foster outlines his plans to take over the convoy, with the help of the
prisoners, and redirect it towards the Libyan port town of Tobruk. On the way, they find an unexpected concentration of German
tanks, and they surmise that a fuel depot must be hidden nearby. Foster, in Afrika Corps uniform, and Major Tarkington, the
medical officer as his 'prisoner', gain access to the depot and meet Field Marshal Erwin Rommel (Wolfgang Preiss). During a
friendly dispute over philately between Rommel and Tarkington, Foster notices a map which indicates the location of the fuel depot.
They make excuses, leave, capture a tank, and blow up the fuel dump. They escape towards Tobruk, where they destroy a coastal
battery. The prisoners are embarked in boats launched by attacking Royal Navy warships. However, Foster and Tarkington are
captured by German soldiers. The film leaves their fates unexplained.
