Synopsis:
The Boy Commandos are sent to Easton school to continue their education. They are befriended by the school gardner, Bathingham, who is really a Nazi spy. Bathingham learns from the boys the date of an invasion on a Nazi controlled tank factory. The Nazis plan a surprise for the Commandos, but Rip Carter realizes the gardner is working with the Nazis and changes the attack plans at the last minute. The attack succeeds and Bathingham is arrested.
