Description

Captain Zed Pastornak and Army Nurse Mary Jane Mather, newly committed lovers before America entered Word War II, find themselves battling a personal war to maintain their relationship. They are stationed in the same general area in Britain as the spring days cover Europe in 1944. But their relationship is not blooming. After a mission to Germany, the decorated Captain Pastornak is given the temporary duty of piloting a B-17 to America with a select cargo of VIP''s. He initiates a plan to have Nurse Mather replace the usual nurse/hostess on the flight crew. He sincerely believes a visit home for Mary Jane would rescue their floundering relationship. Meanwhile on the opposing side of the war in Europe, a quicksilver German spy, code named Albatross, has his own war to win. His daredevil plan is to kidnap US General Bedell Smith, who aided Eisenhower develop plans for the invasion of Europe. The key part of the abduction is to fly the General back to Germany. That act alone would prevent the D-day invasion. It would also secure Albatross praise from Hitler and a place in history. The VIP bomber, with the targeted General aboard, materialized before Albatross and he reaches for it. With the help of two aides, the lax security around the base and on board the aircraft is easy to overcome. On the plane, the ambitious Albatross orders Pilot Pastornak to fly east. But the charmed Zed has his own game plan. The bomber crash-lands in Scotland and Zed and a female RAF officer pursue the Albatross group. Eventually, Zed seeks the aid of the Scottish police and the trail to Albatross leads to the capital-Edinburgh. The German succeeds in getting his VIP hostage to the nearby RAF airfield but hisluck is beginning to wane. The VIP is rescued, although Albatross recaptures Zed and Mary Jane in the process of commandeering an RAF Anson. The spy orders Zed to fly to Germany. Spitfires pursue the light bomber and force it to land in Holland. Dutch partisans finally capture Albatross. Zed joins the partisan group for an overnight mission. Mary Jane remains in the woods hideout with two allied servicemen waiting for transport to England. She reviews her pact with Zed in the light of a strange attraction to one of the servicemen. The following day, with the light bomber refueled, Zed flies plane back to England with Mary Jane, two Dutch women, and Albatross aboard. British police takes the German away. Zed and Mary Jane are left to resolve the puzzle of their relationship, and what''s ahead for them.
