    Has anyone ever seen The Lost Batallion?
    Yep who played the BN CDR oh yeah the you will shoot your eye out kid. He did a good job in the pic. Another film I can't find was a silent Pic of an American Platoon crossing no mans land with an doomsday tune being played. It only showed the men and when they were getting picked off. Wish I could remember the tile of it.

    The Big Parade, thanks Google. Also another WW1 movie I always watched, Well SGT York of course was The Blue Max.

    I still keep Sgt York. Watched many times and will watch again. Lost Batallion will remain as an all time favorite

    My father-in-law grew up in South Florida. There was a Spanish-American War Vet that lived in his neighborhood, one of Teddy's Rough Riders. He said the guy used to wear his old uniform when he was out walking his dogs,
