Episode Overview
In the midst of a fierce battle in the desert, Hitchcock suffers serious injuries. Troy makes the risky decision to transport him to a nearby German field hospital since their own is too far away. Upon their arrival, Troy and Moffitt nearly succeed in their ruse, but a suspicious patient named Captain Friedrich accuses them of being American spies. Although his claims are initially dismissed, the doctor spots a tattoo on Hitchcock’s arm from Ft. Benning, Georgia. Under duress, Troy forces the doctor to complete the surgery, and they make a daring escape amid a barrage of gunfire after the operation.
