William Wellman directs the story of G.I.Joe and noted war correspondent Ernie Pyle(Burgess Meredith). Fighting soldiers tell their stories to Pyle as he follows the infantry through North Africa and Italy. Meredith is outstanding. Robert Mitchum is exceptional as Lt/Capt. Bill Walker. Also in the cast are Freddie Steele, Jimmy Lloyd, William Murphy and Wally Cassell. This war drama is one of the greatest of its kind. War footage sets an early standard. Highly recommended.
