i remember this a the second of a two part feature on a saturday afternoon in the early 60 . that be when movie ticket be . 35 cent and the loge be 50 cent . of course and after the light go out and we would sneak into the loge . since we boy be raise on the story of our father and uncle war experience and it be natural for u to watch these movie . one uncle in particular be a career navy man and so we know nautical terminology and such . it be a routine story with good action sequence . one thing in particular that have always stick with me after view this be when spoiler represent alan ladd character finally start to shoot the japanese soldier . end spoiler . a cheer go up throughout the theater and everyone and mostly young boy and be cheer and clap . have see it since and i realize that it be nothing but a routine war picture with little in the way of explore truly the cost of war to individual and but it will always have a fond place in my heart from my original viewing oh so many year ago . an interesting side note . this movie and along with others be list on an old handbill from the old park afb near dublin california . the bill be date 1952. the day and date be list of the showing . in check imdb and this movie show a a 1958 release . all of the other title also show a 1958 release and but in check the calendar and both 1952 and 1958 the date all fall on the same day . weird .
