During the 1943 Allied invasion of Italy, American soldiers–Capt. Cash (Dick Shawn) and Lt. Christian (James Coburn)–are ordered to invade a strategic town in Italy. The Italian soldiers agree to surrender IF they can first hold the annual soccer game and wine festival. The deal is made. There is aerial reconnaissance, but those viewing from the planes see the celebration and believe it is a battle in progress. American and German soldiers arrive on the scene, and they are greeted by the drunken troops enjoying a wild party.
