You don't throw your knife. As one of my mentors and close working partner of my dad's, once instructed me, "Never throw your knife. You are just arming your enemy." He was OSS behind German lines and actually killed a few sentries with a knife. Dear old dad, both men of legendary status, was no slacker, either. I have personally seen many a man killed with a knife, none thrown. Stabbed through the neck, kidney, or heart.

God made all people from one man, Adam. All people are brothers. Unfortunately, the lying and corrupt clirgy is silent about this. They even bless racists and nazis in the name of God. The problem is that the Devil rules the world. He is a liar and a murderer. This is why deception and violence are everywhere. This is the reason why people cry over stray cats and hate their brothers. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom. That's why we have the Gospel about the Kingdom of God. Jehovah will put everything in order. He has anointed the king, Jesus Christ. The dead will rise and we will meet our loved ones again! :-)

Directed by Richard Conte. This could have been a great film, but it's clearly limited budget shows throughout the film. This must have been something Richard really wanted to do but for some reason, he could not get any major studio to back it. Very nice Spanish set location, but such poor quality filming on every level. You could even see the helicopter backwash on the salt marsh closeups on the water surface as the men ran across them. On par with the spaghetti westerns coming out of Italy at the time. Like all actors, even great ones, you are only as good as your director, film crew and editors. Behind every successful star performance is top-notch production, film and directing excellence. Even Conte is not immune to that fact. Still worth watching to see Richard's attempt to show this fascinating, little known regional theater of war in the greatest struggle for freedom the world has ever known.

The trouble was the German Navy unlike Japan, was never a really powerful force to be beckon considering how they nearly always got beaten by the Royal Navy in surface to surface action. Germany didn't have aircraft carriers and a powerful naval air arm on land and at sea that could have stopped Allied convoys in both the Atlantic and the Mediterranean while at the same time, protecting its own shipping lanes in the North Sea, the English Channel, and in the Mediterranean and could have prevented or stopped the invasion of North Africa, Sicily, Italy, and France. Kidnapping the admiral was a waste of time because of the reasons I had mentioned because, despite the admiral's military skills, his organization was not up to par. It would have been an exercise in futility if the admiral had tried to stop the Sicily invasion.

Well, they always make the Germans lose a lot of men in American and European films and TV series. In this movie, they wipe out the Germans guarding the oil refineries, nearly wipe out the German prison garrison, nearly wipe out the German unit that was waiting for the lieutenant's landing party, and wipe out the German Admiral's small garrison. "A shame they make the good guys lose so many men though, virtually decimated." Well, as Colonel Hessler told his men in the 1965 movie Battle of the Bulge, the price of victory is never cheap. I agreed with you about them not paying attention to details about the German female uniform.

Along the Adriatic coast of Croatia you will find places like that. They are called salanas, and some go back over 2000 years. They enclose a quantity of salt water, and when it evaporates, the salt content remains. A litre of water contains around 35 grammes of salt, and the term salary comes from the Latin word sal, or salt in English. It was used as payment. Next question?

Within the first few minutes of the film these “commandos” made enough noise to awake the whole garrison, and buying an oil storage facility it would have been guarded very very well, and yet two guards managed to walk past one of them, pretending to be one of the guards they had so noisily dispatched, with his face blacker than a coal miner’s, and it broke a cardinal rule of camouflage, it was shining so well it was almost a second moon 🌙. Ok, now going to watch and see how many other glaring mistakes are in this film. Standby. Now I am more confused, one minute the remaining guys had lit the signal fires for the exfil aircraft and the next they are on a fishing boat, then paddling up an inlet with rice paddies as background, and when they were onshore and hiding in the rushes the did not hear 👂 the Germans charging through them like a herd of elephants 🐘, how, how didn’t they hear 👂 the Germans?????!!!!!!!, and wearing a bright orange neckerchief is stupid, unless it was a visual signal to the Germans that he was a traitor, or maybe he had a death wish. I stand corrected, salt fields, not rice paddies And whoever heard of sailors wearing “whites” in the field, stood out like a very very sore thumb, and they turned out to be friendlies!!!!!!???? OK, my mistake, it was two different groups, and neither have any real tactical brains 🧠.

Nobody involved in this movie has any training, experience or knowledge of weapons or combat. Nobody goes into combat carrying only the ammunition in their weapon. Nobody using a colt 45 extends their middle or ring finger off the grip; they keep a tight grip so they can control the pistol when they need to shoot it. An interesting story anyway.

The story is complicated as there are two moles, with one mole for each side. Only at the end is all revealed. At one point our side is dressed up as monks but this does not fool the Nazis. Another guy is dressed up as a sheep and is more successful. I would say this is a big budget film as a lot happens but with the course of time it has disappeared.
