The second phase is infiltration of the bunker by a team of three Allied commandoes impersonating two German officers that includes the inventor of the process and their driver who have been scheduled to visit the installation that have been intercepted and assassinated by the Resistance. The team, led by Lt. Strobel Peter Lee Lawrence is to locate the mechanism for the process and relay that information to England. Phase three is an American parachute attack on the installation on the night prior to DDay led by Captain Murphy Guy Madison.Leading his strike force in rehearsals for the raid, Captain Murphy is growing more disillusioned about the scheme due to what he feels is Allied Intelligence giving the surprise away due to the continued reconnaissance. Murphy also feels the code name gambit, a chess term for the sacrifice of a pawn, is meant to apply to his command. ........
