Tobruk

Rock Hudson and George Peppard star in this explosive hard-hitting World War II epic. Based on a true incident, this exciting drama follows a convoy of British and German-Jewish commandos as they cross 800 miles of the Libyan desert to blow up a key Nazi fortress at Tobruk, which is guarded by General Rommel`s crack troops. Hudson plays a Canadian officer who is shanghaied into joining the daring raid, while Peppard plays the determined leader of the German-Jewish unit, battling Allied prejudice along with enemy fire.
