Im Morgengrauen brach die Hölle los (1971)
Nordafrika 1942: Generalfeldmarschall Rommel und seine Truppen eilen von Sieg zu Sieg. Der englische Offizier Captain Foster erhält den gefährlichen Auftrag, diesen Siegesmarsch zu stoppen. Hierfür muß er im Alleingang eine britische Spezialeinheit, die wegen eines versuchten Attentats auf Rommel in Kriegsgefangenschaft geraten ist, befreien. Die schwierige Befreiungsaktion mitten in der Wüste gelingt, und die englische Truppe macht sich in deutschen Uniformen auf den gefährlichen Weg in Richtung Küste. Die Zeit drängt, denn die britische Flotte hält Kurs auf Nordafrika...
