This WWII film shows an air attack on Naples, a vital Italian city that supports Axis naval and air forces in both Italy and the Balkans. After a briefing — in which the target charts have been censored to the public with black-out — B-24 aircraft of the 15th Air Force are loaded and take off towards Naples. After action de-briefing accounts for damage to Italian ships including a cruiser, and many other warships in the harbor of Naples.
