Synopsis:

A renegade team of World War II soldiers. This time, one of the 12 is a woman and, with a Nazi spy within their midst, they're up against German wartime geniuses out to establish a Fourth Reich.

The film opens with Major Wright leading a group of commandos in Nazi-occupied Denmark. The group is on their way to meet up with a "good German," Naval Captain Carl Ludwig. As Ludwig appears through the fog to Major Wright and his men, they are glad to see he's alone, however, he is actually being followed by a German patrol. Realizing that they cannot allow Ludwig to be captured alive, the commandos spring into action. Ludwig is shot by the patrol, as Major Wright and his commandos arrive and kill them. Before he succumbs to his wounds, Ludwig utters the phrase, "vierundzwanzig, zwanzig" (2420), which Major Wright does not understand. Back in England, Major Wright, General Worden (Ernest Borgnine), Lieutenant Carol Campbell (Heather Thomas) and a British Colonel are driving along when they happen upon two American GIs brawling outside a pub. Major Wright has the two men, Fred Collins and Tom Ricketts, arrested, because "they might come in handy on the next mission." At U.S. Army Headquarters in London, the Colonel and others are seen discussing the Germans' plans for developing a Fourth Reich (in case they lose the war) in the Middle East under the guidance of SS General Kurt Richter who has selected 12 loyal and influential Nazis under age 35 to be transported to Istanbul and build the new Reich over the course of 10 years, 20 years or a century if necessary. The 12 men will be boarding a train in Munich and will travel along the old Orient Express route to Istanbul in neutral Turkey. Major Wright is ordered to recruit 12 men from Forbes Road Military Prison for a suicide mission aimed at preventing the train from reaching its destination and killing Richter's selected 12 Nazis. Before making his selections at Forbes Road, Major Wright is joined by General Worden, who reveals that General Richter's 12 men will be riding in Orient Express train car #2420, which explains Captain Ludwig's words.

Twelve top Nazis are ordered to the Middle East, where they are to organize a Fourth Reich, and only Major Wright and his convict commando squad can stop them.
