Synopsis:
The world is shocked when Nazi ships begin raiding allied shipping and military installations. The Nazis appear to be led by Hitler, but it is really an imposter named Von Henkle.

Hendrickson is shot down near the Nazi base and encounters Von Henkle. He defeats the Nazi, then takes his place to learn the plans of the Nazis. However, Hendrickson is struck in the head causing him to believe he really is a Nazi and capture the Blackhawks.

The Nazis succeed in luring their true target, Gustav Breck out of hiding. They plan to rob Breck of the money he escaped Germany with. Von Henkle recovers and slugs Hendrickson which restores the Blackhawk’s memory. He rescues his comrades and together they round up the Nazis and Breck.
