TOBRUK' (1967) starred GEORGE PEPPARD; ROCK HUDSON; NIGEL GREEN and many others. The story line is about Rommel's Afrika Korps on the march through Egypt, a British special forces unit, composed of German Jews who serve with the British despite the mutual resentment between both,  kidnap a Canadian officer who is an expert topographer and who is held prisoner by the Vichy French in Algeria. The officer, Donald Craig (Rock Hudson), must negotiate a company of British and  German-Jewish commandos through 800 miles of the Sahara to aide a pending amphibious landing against Tobruk's massive fuel storage base - a mission that sees one impediment after another, and  which discovers an undetected German armored force ready to win the battle of Egypt. 'INDIANA JONES AND THE RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK' (1981) is an epic tale in which an intrepid archaeologist tries to beat a band of Nazis to a unique religious relic which is central to their plans for world domination.
