1945: Angel Dust earns a pact with American authorities: to earn liberty, he has to go to Salò, in Italy, to capture the Duce Benito Mussolini. The authorities don't trust Angel, so they give him as an escort two inept, troublemaking GIs: Pvt. Laurel and Pvt. Hardy. In the meantime, the Italian command gives some of their soldier to their Japanese ally. Fantozzi and Filini are two of them. They're enlisted as kamikaze pilots. In Italy, Angel evades the two GIs control and has a romantic story with an Italian gay partisan named Ignazio. But Mussolini is killed by other partisans before the Anglo-Americans arrest him, and Ignazio tells Angel he's not ready for a relationship. Finally, Filini dies heroically attacking an American battleship with his plane, while Fantozzi finds refuge in a little Japanese country town: Hiroshima, which is nuked, killing Fantozzi.
