Synopsis for "Trapped in the Compound of Death!"

The Howling Commandos get dropped into the Netherlands where they take a picture of plans for the Nazis' buzz bomb. After completing their mission Izzy requests to head to Roermond to look for his uncle whom is Jewish.

After arriving at his uncle's house they meet with his "landlord" who says his uncle was taken to a concentration camp in Düsseldorf. The Howlers borrow some clothes from the Dutch Resistance and hand off the pictures so that they can get them to the Allies. The Howlers then get captured and board a train going to the camp.

At the camp they recognize the "landlord" as a soldier and a fight breaks out while Izzy and his Uncle escape. The Howlers soon realize that no one is dying from their stolen guns and that the Nazis have performed a ruse on them but replacing the bullets with blanks in order for Izzy to escape. Izzy's Uncle is actually a Nazi actor disguising himself as his uncle in order to implant a Nazi spy that can gather information. The Howlers are then taken to be executed by firing squad.

Feigning a heart attack Fury gets a drop on his executioners and the Howlers escape the concentration camp, not before collecting Gabe who was taken away to be tortured for information. Dino sets off some explosions delaying Nazi pursuit while they catch up with Izzy and his "uncle". The Howlers gun down Izzy's uncle who is clearly upset by this only to be tackled and shown that the uncle was a spy and that his real uncle is already dead.
