Synopsis:
The Hellcats receive intelligence from Mademoiselle Marie that the Nazis are developing a secret weapon atop Mount Vincent in the Alps. Lt. Hunter leads his men up the mountain where they discover a secret training facility where German soldiers are being conditioned to withstand the cold and icy conditions. The Hellcats attempt to bury the soldiers in an avalanche of snow and ice, but they are impervious to the cold. Hunter then orders his men to use fire against the enemy. In the extreme heat of the fire, the enemy soldiers fall. The Hellcats prevail, and the enemy facilities are destroyed.
