REVIEWS

Review by Larry May (posted on 24-May-2005)

James Whitmore plays a great part as the tough sergent especially when they march out after being relieved from the lines. (I'm a retired airborne trooper myself.) This gives a good account of the airborne soldiers who were surrounded at the Battle of the Bulge.
