We being with Sgt. Rock in "3 Men in a Tub" by Robert Kanigher and Russ Heath. Sgt. Rock and Easy Company capture three Italian soldiers who claim to be working against the Nazis. Easy takes the prisoners with them and soon discovers that they possess useful skills including shoemaking and cooking. When Rock receives orders to attack Nazi-held Cortina Castle, the Italians claim to know a secret entrance.
Rock allows the Italians to guide him past Nazi patrols. However, the Italians seemingly turn against him and turn Rock over to the Nazis. The betrayal is only a ruse, and the Italians help Rock to invade the castle. They clear a path for the rest of Easy to take control and defeat the Nazis.
