Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Released to video as Pattern for Plunder, the British Bay of Saint Michel top-bills Hollywood's Keenan Wynn. A group of ex-Army commandos are reunited several years after the war. Their former leader has it on good authority that the Nazis have hidden a huge treasure somewhere in Normandy. Employing their wartime tactics and strategies, the male protagonists -- together with distaff aide Mai Zetterling -- "invade" the coast of France and set about searching for the booty. Bay of Saint Michel was reissued at the height of the "007 craze" as Operation Mermaid.
