In 1945, an American Infantry company sets up an artillery observation post but tensions between a Captain and a Lieutenant run high.
Director: Robert Aldrich
Although he plays a coward in this film, in real life Eddie Albert, who served in WW2, was a war hero. At the Battle of Tarawa in 1943, whilst braving heavy enemy fire, he rescued over 70 wounded Marines, loading them on to his landing craft and taking them back to other ships to receive medical care.
