German Atlantic Wall coastal defenses. German forces enter the Crimean Peninsula in World War II.

In opening scene, German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel is giving a "pep talk" to senior officers assembled at the Northern part of the German "Atlantic Wall" defenses in Scandinavia, during World War 2.

Troops travel on a small gauge railway carrying canisters of propellant and shells to a unique heavy coastal gun installed , near Kristiansand, Norway, overlooking the Skagerak Strait. (The gun is a 28 cm SK C/34 naval gun, similar to those installed on some battleships. But this one was appropriated from an abandoned German Army super-tank project.) An alarm bell sounds in the fort and soldiers respond. Next, huge coastal gun shells are seen being moved on conveyors to the gun. A team of gun operators recite preparation steps out loud as they adjust range, bearing, and other parameters before firing the weapon. Gunners load a shell into the gun breech, followed by several propellant charges. The breech lowers inside the fort as the gun barrel is raised to desired elevation. The gun is fired. More commands are spoken aloud and another round is fired. Glimpse from outside of gun flash at night. Complete change of scene shows a map of Crimean Peninsula.
