The Iraq war brings back memories of Korea and older soldiers recalled to do battle again and leave a comfy lifestyle. Released in 1954 and running 102 minutes it's dated at times but the similarities to the Iraq war are there as far as disrupting life goes. A truly "a"list cast for the time makes it truly compelling.I took 1 and 1/2 stars off for the dated factor but it's still well worth the time if you like drama with a battleground always looming.Great closing line after a tragic death."Where do we get such men"brings a tear.IMDB summary below and trailer URL after pix.It's a great Navy flick as well.
Set during the Korean War, a Navy fighter pilot must come to terms with with his own ambivalence towards the war and the fear of having to bomb a set of highly defended bridges. The ending of this grim war drama is all tension. Written by KC Hunt <khunt@eng.morgan.edu>
