The NKVD, the Russian Security Service, put the nurse under surveillance. She is assigned to lead a party of nurses to Italy, while he patrols the Albanian coast in search of a German SS Panzer division. The NKVD assist the Nazis to escape in exchange for weapons. The SS Officer in charge, has encountered Hazel previously, and is obsessed with revenge. He tasks the NKVD to abduct her but they bungle it, capturing the nurses without the lead nurse. The nurses are held captive on a ship. She is re-united with her naval officer husband, who receives a special signal to rescue the nurses. It is a dramatic rescue. The European war ends.
