Synopsis: 

Harrison Ford and Christopher Plummer are on a mission during WWII, behind enemy lines.

Intentions: 

To remove the forced, unconvincing love triangle and refocus the story around a spy and a bomber pilot trying to complete a highly sensitive mission after their support team is killed.

Change List: 

SPOILERS,  I cut every part of the film that didn't feature the main mission, and I changed the ending so that the spy dies.  Lots of other changes too, mostly to improve pacing, focus the story, and keep within the time limit.  I also removed all original sounds and music, replacing the original John Barry soundtrack, which felt too disconnected from the action to me and too close to Bond castoffs, with music by Bruce Broughton from several different films, primarily Monster Squad and Narrow Margin.

Special Thanks: 

Thanks to bleujayone, who first told me about the film. It's not quite the Indy in WWII story you originally envisioned, Jay, but I hope it's entertaining anyway!
