I like, "Battlecry," it's very broad, but truth be known, over my three years in the service, I did indeed run across guy's pretty similar to the guys in this movie. I was in the service (1980-83.) This film was released in the mid-50's, & the story takes place in the early 1940's. Service life is probably pretty similar today. This ain't, "Wuthering Height's," or, "MacBeth," but for what it is, ( a panavision, military/soap-Opera.) It moves well, with a little wiggle in it's step.

Excelent movie, superb book by Leon Uris. I love the characters in the book and very well transfered to the movie. Outstanding performance of all the cast in particular spectacular Aldo Ray, it was like I was reading the novel.

Great movie based on an even greater book, must watch and read! Semper Fi!
