A gritty, low-budget, WWII drama high-lighted by fine performances from a cast of virtual unknowns. Commando team lands on the beach just prior to D-Day to knock out Nazi communications center. Stars Lyon and Bartlett turn-out great drama. Lyon wrote and performed the haunting title song. This is obviously a quickie production, hence the plot isn't as well developed as it could have been, however, for a first entry by the film makers it remains respectable. Also of note is the score by "newcomer" Elmer Berstein. Sadly, this film is over-looked and seldom available for viewing. NO, this was NOT one of Lippert's 'overseas endeavors' but was directed and produced by Bartlett and Lyon, released by Lippert, and filmed in Malibu California. In a recent interview, producer Lyon revealed that the picture was made for a measly $27000! Lyon and Bartlett also worked on the Lippert produced "Silver Star" and "Lonesome Trail."
