Damn good war flic with lots of pyrotechnics, flame throwers, automatic fire, a super cool, triple magazine grease gun wielded by McQueen, and Gerand rifles which were actually shown being fired dry. Oh, and quite a few Americans were killed instead of being bullet proof. Not as graphic as "Saving Private Ryan", but what is, eh? For 1962, this was really a very gritty war pic: too bad it wasn't in color.
