English Summary:

Raid on Rommel is an American B movie in Technicolor from 1971, directed by Henry Hathaway and set in North Africa during the Second World War. It stars Richard Burton as a British commando attempting to destroy German gun emplacements in Tobruk. Much of the action footage was reused from the 1967 film Tobruk, and the storyline is also largely the same. 

In Libya in 1942 Captain Alex Foster (Burton), an intelligence officer with the British Army, allows himself to be captured by a German Afrika Korps convoy transporting British prisoners, pretending to be injured. Once integrated with the prisoners, remnants of a commando force and a medical unit, Foster outlines his plans to take over the convoy, with the help of the prisoners, and redirect it towards the Libyan port town of Tobruk. 

 

German Summary:

Libyen 1943, seit drei Jahren stemmt sich die britische Armee gegen Generalfeldmarschall Rommels (Wolfgang Preiss) scheinbar unaufhaltbare Panzertruppen. Wenn es den Engländern nicht bald gelingt, den genialen Wüstenfuchs und sein Afrikakorps aufzuhalten, gerät der gesamte Mittelmeerraum in die Hand der Nazis. Der Geheimdienstoffizier Alex Foster (Richard Burton) setzt bei einem selbstmörderischen Kommando-Unternehmen alles auf eine Karte: Er will hinter den feindlichen Linien britische Kriegsgefangene befreien, um mit ihnen die deutschen Befestigungsanlagen bei Tobruk zu zerstören...
