(Hitlers Last Stand: Season 6: Summit Under Siege) Historie Hitlers Last Stand returns, as the Allied forces land on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Western Europe. In the final chapter of WWII, bringing the fight to Hitlers doorstep will be no easy task. Nazi fanatics and diehards fight back ferociously for survival, across the strongholds of occupied Europe — in France, Belgium, Italy, and into Germany itself. These are the wars final, desperate battles, told at ground level through the soldiers who lived them: from the legendary Canadian regiment The Black Watch holding the line at Verrières Ridge, to elite officers of Britains Special Boat Service (SBS) carrying out an ambush in Northern Italy. Victory will demand courage, strategy, brotherhood—and unimaginable sacrifice. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, every man on the ground is willing to do whatever it takes. D-Day was a battle. But they still need to win the war. After an isolated American battalion captures a remote stronghold known as “Battle Mountain”, German forces launch relentless counterattacks to take it back. US troops are pushed to their limits as they face artillery barrages, flamethrowers, and close-quarters assaults from an enemy unwilling to give up the summit — and its access to the strategically important Po Valley. Retreat is not an option, and the battalion commander must take to the battlefield himself, as the enemy threatens to overwhelm them. With casualties mounting, American soldiers make their last stand in a decaying castle on the summit. The battle turns into a gruelling test of endurance, as individual acts of bravery and sacrifice will determine whether the Americans can hold the mountain, or if it falls back into German hands.
