17 September 1944: The allies launch the largest airborne offensive in history, delivering 36,000 troops by parachute and glider to the Dutch / German Border.

Under the care of Medical Officer Captain Daniel Garland, Trickey is shipped to Germany as a Prisoner of War. As Garland slowly nurses him back to health, he discovers that there's something unusual about Trickey, starting with a chance meeting Trickey had with Erwin Rommel before the War...
