Re: Combat films- more for the list

Another three goodies-
"A walk in the sun"- follows a US Army infantry company in Sicily-
resolutely unheroic and pointing out the

"They were not divided"- a British tank squadron followed from basic
training  to combat in NW Europe (in Shermans)- thoroughly convincing.

"Attack!"- Jack Palance as a worn-out US infantry officer in NW Europe,
Eddie Albert as a political appointee company commander, Lee Marvin as a
cynical Colonel with post-war politics uppermost in his mind.  Lack of
official cooperation means there's some fairly odd hardware (a fearsome
German Tank cobbled together out of a prehistoric Marmon Herrington
light
tank prototype) but dramatically it's very effective.

There's also an excellent Sam Fuller movie about a US company fighting a
delaying action in deep snow in Korea- the title escapes me for the
moment.

Talking of Private Ryan- does anyone know if those fake Tigers are the
same
individual machines as the Kelly's Heroes Tigers?
