La Batalla de Magucho was a battle that took place in the midst of cold war tensions in Argentina in October of 1972. It began with the CIA finding that Russian expat Eyfim Romanov Romanov supposedly had found the truth about where Hitler went to after World War 2. Quite conspicuously it was in the self-proclaimed "Nazi Town" of Argentina: Magucho. American agent Charles Zabbernathy led forces into the town to capture Eyfim. Soviet agents, led by Erina Yantav, found their way into the town to try and kill Eyfim. The ensuing battle lasted for days. The captured Eyfim finally told Charles what he knew (which is classified) and Charles killed Eyfim on the spot.
