Rasmussen promises their freedom and release back to Germany when the task is completed and after initial hostility he slowly begins to sympathise with their plight. He takes advantage of the teenage POW’s, ordering them to dig up the mines from the sand with their bare hands. ![]() Tough veteran Sergeant Carl Rasmussen is assigned by Lieutenant Ebbe Jensen to diffuse and remove two million mines on the Danish West Coast to keep the beaches safe.
