Nicholas Gage, of the British Navy, was a former circus performer (high-wire artist) whose specialty was getting in and out of Nazi installations. This Show was created by CBS because after the successful 5 Season World War II tv Show Combat! that ran from 1962-1967 which Aired on ABC Tuesdays Nights 7:30 PM
on abc was Canceled because they ran out of money and the show came out in color which took alot of the viewers away.So abc replaced Combat! with "Garrison's Gorillas"
