Parachute Battalion (1941) BUDDY EBSEN
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 лют 2014
- Stars: Buddy Ebsen, Robert Preston, Edmond O'Brien
Director: Leslie Goodwins
In this patriotic war drama, a unit of Army recruits train for a parachute corps. One is an arrogant football star, another is a coward who eventually finds his courage. Finally there is a chronic bumbler. The coward and jock find themselves competing for the affections of an indecisive young woman.
The filmmakers of this movie paid careful attention to detail and was made with the cooperation of the 501st Parachute Battalion at Fort Benning, Georgia using actual paratroopers. The viewer is taken through every stage of a jump including folding the chute at the beginning. - Фільми й анімація
Love this movie. Ft Benning and the equipment had changed but not too much when I went through my Airborne Training in 1968. The barracks looked the same as did the 250 foot towers. One of the best things that I ever did was to volunteer. I never regretted it.
Truth. 1971. All The Way.
Thank You for Your service Sir! :)
Bless you!
I saw everything different. No proper PLFs. One jumper at a time? No stick. No proper jump commands. Even the 250 foot towers only had two arms. The old parachutes T7’s sucked. Notice how the exhibition of how the parachute came out of the pack? That had a terrible opening shock! Nut buster! Now the parachute is in a bag so the suspension extended before the canopy came out and blossomed. Without the bag the opening was a violent shock. Keep your feet and knees together. I graduated in 76. No quick releases on the risers/harness must have sucked.
Because 'Benning' was a Confederate, they changed the name of Ft. Benning to Ft. Moore..."Woke" is busy laundering & re-writing American history.
They don't teach History, or anything else worthwhile in schools anymore, anyway.👎🏿👎🏿
I watch old war movies. Always, learn something new. My father was a Sargent in Germany during World War Two. It's amazing how far the parachute has improved since it's beginning. Thanks to the people who had the initiative to keep trying until the parachute became an important part of the military service. Thanks for this film.
Worth it just to watch an impossibly young Robert Preston perfecting his Harold Hill charm...
THESE OLD MOVIES FROM THE 40' ON UNTIL THE MID 70'S ARE JUST GREAT.
Could not help but smile when Buddy Ebsen started dancing...That was great.I really love these old war movies and truly believe those men were amnericas greatest generation.
This movie was made before the war .
Wow! What a great cast this film has of budding new male stars: Buddy Ebsen (as comedy relief), Robert Preston (as good looking affable "all-American" jock guy), Edmond O'Brien (as serious and pensive guy with a backstory). There's even Harry Carey, Sr. (as the grizzled tough seargent), Robert Barrat, Selmer Jackson, Grant Withers, Erville Alderson, and Paul Kelly, so many great character actors. You just can't make a bad film with this kind of talent. Sure, it's a jingoistic World War 2 film, but these films were needed, so they ought to be good films.
Loved watching this my dad trained here with the101st 82nd air bourne, the 504 divison, so proud of his service.
There is no 504 division. The 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment is within the 82nd Airborne Division.
The 101 st is its own division ( Screaming Eagles , just like the 82 nd is (All - Americans). Ones in Fort Bragg the other is Fort Benning . The 11th airborne division is in Alaska Elmendorf- Richardson, base the (Arctic Angels ). It’s funny the difference in these movies made right before the war and those that were made after .
@@donaldpiper9763Yes, we know all that. My comment was on the fact they called the 504th a division. It is a regiment, not a division.
Something most folks don't realize is, the US Forest Service used parachutes first. For backwoods delivery of the "Smokejumper" firefighters. The Army thought it might work for them. So the Forest Service taught them. We still have Smokejumpers today.
NOW this is entertainment!! Get sick of hearing God's Name in vain, cursing and swearing in general!! Buddy Ebson could really dance!! 10:00 in the movie, those Army Boots, with the Buckle are to die for!!! Thanx for this gem of a movie!!
What is God's name? Hint. It's James.
Me too GODS NAME IS USED IN REVERENCE
@@celibatechannel you.have pizza for a brain and soul
Im a veteran of 101st . My son is a veteran of the 82nd. My dad was 11th airborne during WWII .
Thank you and your family. In my family. Uncle started in WWII flying P-38's over Europe. Then switched to the Navy. Saw air combat action in Korea. At 60 was called back to duty for Vietnam - retired Commander. Oldest brother - Navy. His two sons Air Force, oldest sister - lieutenant United States Army, other sister - Chief Petty officer Navy, other brother. Air National Guard, me Air Force.
Sir , Thank You an your family !. There are many here on YT that what there dads , uncles , Etc. did in battles . But there are few who follow there service . Bless all the unknown an unclaimed hero
@@tracyjamestavares3255 as well, cheers.
Please look up Rakkasan Teas. It is a company founded by a couple of American airborne vets that buys land in post-conflict countries (Nepal, Sri Lanka, Rwanda, Laos, Vietnam, Colombia, etc), sets up tea plantations and then hires local veterans (when possible from both sides of the conflicts) to run them.
Not only is it a great idea, their teas, both green and black, are amazingly delicious.
Oh my knees, oh my ankles, oh my back. Would not trade any of it. Some of the best days of my young life.
Jed did that dance with Granny on “The Beverly Hillbillies.” Well, Doggie! Thank You
Took my basic training, jump school and ranger school at Ft. Benning. Loved every minute of it.
Sand Hill or Harmony Church? My platoon had to drag all the beds and foot lockers into Sand Hill when they'd finished building it. No one had used those barracks before.
Clean, no bad language, no sex REAL ENTERTAINMENT. Thank you so very much.
@ David Aston Real life scare you? It must. A movie about military NEEDS to have some cussing and fucking. Because that's what we do!
That was because there was a legion of decency back then that monitored movies.
Yes a good clean war is REAL ENTERTAINMENT isn't it?
It's good that this film showed a little history of parachuting, as well as the seriousness and dangerousness of it. The importance of packing the chute correctly. That is critical.
Here in France we know how high has been the price paid by the airborne troops. Respectul and grandful salutations to all those who have fought and died for our freedom.
Not only France, but Belgium, Holland, Italy and many others. There were probably even some Germans.
I did the 70th anniversary of d-day, an we took the same route as the band of brothers took in the movie.
One of my favorite sites was Mer St Eglace where John Steel's parachute hung from the church steepel and the German soldiers shot at him. He was shot in one of his feet and played dead til they left. John Steel was from Metropolis, Massac, Illinois and is buried im a cemetery there.
@@petepiotrowski Sainte-Mère-Eglise. Geez, no one could find it from your inane spelling.
Pete Piotrowski there was lots of Germans some left and invented atomic bombs others stayed and where killed or put in prison
I love how the in France the people take very good care the cemeteries. Ty my mom lost 2 of her brothers in France.
It is noce to see people appreciate and Rembers those who sacrificed all.
Our thanks from a grateful nation - - - nice movie
I served over 11 of my 27 years in the Army on jump status. I also deployed for Desert Shield/Desert Storm with C 1/505 PIR 82nd ABN. Those of us who spent time on jump status, especially in the 82nd, and even more deployed with them, automatically have a brotherhood bond. It cannot be explained, just experienced.
AATW!

Good movie I never seen Buddy ebsen playing a movie that young before
He was a famous dancer at this point, doing a little acting.
Well he was younger than that. Started in films in 1936.
I am AIRBORNE, MIGHTY MIGHTY AIRBORNE. I'm 82nd and dad is 101st.
So many great movies like this have been almost lost and never appear on any 'best of lists'
Love this cast.
Great movie. Made me very proud of our airborne.
Great uncle was 10th mountain division, uncle was 101st airborne, dad was 82nd airborne and went ranger, me I went Navy.
You are the smart one!!! GO NAVY!!!
GO NAVY!! BEAT ARMY!!
Served 86-89 in the German paratroops.
Got the US wings too.
Chinook and C130.
Our training was based on the US paratroops training. But I figured that out much later. Very interesting to see that the training methods haven’t changed not that much. I only miss the tower.
Glück ab to all former and present paratroopers!
Sehr gut
I was born there in 1953, I still remember my folks driving on and off Benning at the smell of all those Southern pines.
Just think... Some of the men in this picture probably dropped into Normandy on D Day. They also fought at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge. Cuuuureee , Band of Brothers!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I had a Civics teacher in High School who was at the Battle of the Bulge. He was with the 101st. Had a great story about getting dropped far from the battle, having to walk a long way to get to the fight, and passing "green" troops who'd ditched their weapons walking the other way!!!
Currahee
Great movie. This was made before any of the WWII drops. Recognized Roy Lindquist’s name on the set of orders. He was with the 82nd later. Believe he was a Regimental Cdr at one point. Many of these guys in the 501st would later be part of the 509th Parachute Infantry Bn. They made a 1600 mile flight from England to jump into North Africa as part of Operation Torch.
Pretty good movie. Am glad I stumbled onto it. Thanks for posting it.
I was a paratrooper from 74-90 and retired in 94 with 101 jumps and Master Parachutist both US and S. Korean. Hooha. The Towers were the same, and I had my first tower jump on my 18th Birthday; was so busy in Jump School I didn't realize it until 2 am in the morning on 2 July;)
I met a woman in a nursing home in Live Oak, FL who recalled dancing with Buddy back before he broke into pictures!
Great video of him dancing and looking like a young Jed Clampett ua-cam.com/video/01mMV6mN1hU/v-deo.html
That is the great thing about You Tube , little bits of history would be lost without it,
Hey... I went thru Benning in 1967. General Westmoreland pinned my wings on and I met John Wayne. Filming the Green Beret. Jump pay was $55 Extra per month. Airborne!!
It’s interesting that this was filmed and released about a year before Pearl Harbor. At that time the military was at its smallest I’m sure this was part of a recruiting tool. I found this movie entertaining and fascinating to see how things were done. By the time the US entered the war so much of this was improved. It’s also interesting to think all those in this movie are now dead but left us with a great piece of entertainment.
Great Scripting, acting and music. Thanks for sharing these classics. 🤠👍👍💖
D-Day plus 75 years and peace remains on European shores. Thanks for all your you sacrificed . An Englishman.
Yes, but there is more chaos in Paris than when Hitler's Nazis were there. Ain't life a bitch!
@@thomasritter3159 Yes, the US invasion of Iraq, Syria, Libya, Somalia, and Afganistan sure produced a lot of Muslim immigrants.
Well that has been ruined by Putin as of March 2022.
Well .... not so much in SE Europe in recent years.
Sarajevo hosted a Winter Olympics, then became a war zone.
Another great movie from the past..My older brother was in the 101st. Airborn the Screaming Eagles during the V.C.war as ranger
Loved the movie thank god for utube i get ta see all the good stuff again
Thanks to all of you and your service for us and our country.
Ft. Benning GA my Home away from Home. Worked at the 42nd Co. Airborne for 2 years and the 4th Student Bat, Ranger School. I am retired now and miss it a lot.
Good ol 42 in 72 still sweating too
I was in 42nd Co. Last Building by the street, it was across from the little Hotdog/ Hamburger stand they called it "the choke & Puke" 😝
Excellent movie and great to see Buddy Ebsen dancing in it and playing a hillbilly too.
Buddy Ebsen? Started as a dancer and I believe he danced with Shirley Temple in a movie. Was also the first Tin Man in Wizard of Oz. Something about the silver paint they used caused him to be hospitalized so he was replaced. Then sidekick George in Walt Disney's Davey Crockett series all before becoming Jed.
@@europeon2wheels89 Thanks. I was about to share that poisoning episode. Ray Bolger was a good alternative. My mother saw the movie in the cinema when it was new.
@@europeon2wheels89 Pretty versitle guy and he was also "Barnaby Jones". Can't forget that one.
This is a story about a man named Jed, the poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed. Then one day he was shooting at some food, and up from the ground came a bubbling crude. Oil that is, black gold, Texas Tea. Well the first thing you know ole Jed's a millionaire. The kin folk said "Jed, move away from there. California is the place you ought to be." So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly ... Hills that is. Swimming pools, movies stars. The Beverly Hillbillies. [and that's from memory].
@@petersanders5321 No, I can't, but I keep trying.
I needed that film. It cheered me up.
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you. 🍕
Hey.... There is still some Airborne Soldiers running wild. 😎🇺🇸🍉🎹
My dad trained just after this group. He was in the 551st PIB. At least 3 jumps in Europe.
Nice memories 👌
GREAT MOVIE'S, GREAT MEMORIES. THANK YOU.
I have never seen Buddy Ebsen not look old until now lol.
search Captain January
He danced with Shirley Temple in a movie around 1936.
This is awesome. History remember.
18th ABC, Sky Dragons. Loved Airborne school at Ft. Benning. This stuff makes me nostalgic for a time well before my time.😅
God bless all of you for your service thank you
I never wanted to go airborne (And still don't) but I respect those who did!!!
My concern would be that first step out the door ........ would my stomach stay where it is suppose to be.
Great 🎥. Thank you
🙃☕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸
Great old film wonder how many of them boys made it back from the war .
Awesome movie and not one curse word!
Served on the USS Toledo SSN-769.
My uncle on the Frigate USS Thomas C. Hart.
My other uncle on the USS Kitty Hawk and USS Enterprise.
My first time to watch this awesome story. Thanks for posting.
Excellent film with many later to be leading men and shows a time when we were proud and brave Patriots instead of the rif raf we have now disrespecting Our Flag!! Thanks for the great upload.
Yep - like trump, nugent, kid rock, mcconnel, lahren, and those who wear it as swim suits, sweat bands, dew rags, and fly the confederate flag with it.
better a commie (the one who f u during WWII) than a bloody confederate hater neo- Nazi war monger who's still flyin' and celebrate the symbols of losers.
Where's General Sherman? He's badly needed to get traitor Trump and his bums out of the White House
Andrew Jackson was a Southerner, neither a Commie nor a Socialist and was responsible for the Cherokee Removal act and the Trail of Tears for all the rapes and 6,000 deaths, and the stealing of Cherokee and Choctaw lands. Loads of other Politicians and Presidents who committed Genocide, every man is created equal unless he isn't White. The money that was "compensation" for the Cherokee land was used to pay the troops who removed Cherokee and other tribes who committed the atrocities. What was left over was put into Southern business stocks.
The Conservatives of the SCOTUS invalidated the Voting Rights Acts of 1965 and currently voted in support of the disenfranchise the Lakota voters of North Dakota from voting as the US Government will only mail send to PO Boxes on reservations and ND State Government won't allow PO Boxes as addresses for voter identification, or I can go on about Nevada, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida you UN-American Conservatives in the RNC have been pulling dirty tricks to get votes in violation of court injunctions repeatedly from 1980 to 2013 (when the injunction was lifted). If Trump and the Republicans are so American and Patriotic why do they repeatedly attempt and succeed at voter suppression, do you hate the Constitution and its Amendments so much? Because neither the current president or the Supermajority in Congress gives a rat's arse about the US Constitution.
You reply to Street Gato is like a little bird, tweets loudly but is full of sh!t! Sherman was justified in his scorch and burn policy, against traitors to the United States of America. The Confederacy lost. Get over it, Snowflake.
"Get an Editor"=Deflection. The Founding Father's of the USA from the South wanted the non-voting slaves counted (to increase their representation in the House of Representatives in total when apportioning Representatives, as well as Presidential electors and taxes. The Three-Fifths Compromise was proposed by James Wilson (born in Scotland lived of PA) and Roger Sherman of CT, who were both delegates for the Constitutional Convention of 1787. The Southern States would not have joined under the Constitution if slavery was abolished.
Some South Carolina hot heads at the Citadel fired on US Flag during James Buchanan administration in December of 1860. Although it was not unconstitutional to secede from the Union, South Carolina's hostile aggression was an act of war. "Old Doughface" President James Buchanan did nothing, although from PA his sympathies were with the South. Likewise Confederate leaders ordered an attack on Fort Sumter, on April 12, 1861. Your "War of Northern Aggression" seems to have had two shots fired before the Union Response; ironic.
If America is falling apart, then the likes of Mitch McConnell, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, and the Koch Brothers, seem to an active part as well as politicians attempting to disenfranchise voters. I wouldn't count the USA out quite yet, it has survived worse than Trump's cabal.
Have a nice day, now that I fed the troll; I hope you live to see the day when you will eat your words.
Thank you I really enjoyed it
Thanks.
I remember buddy hackett and buddy epsen past from this world the same week. i was bummed and someone asked me why i was down. I replied, two of my buddies died this week.
Watching those roundies open makes my skin crawl. I'm glad the technology progressed rapidly, things like anti-inversion netting. And the oscillations of the unvented canopies.
Good film. I'd like to see it again someday.
Terrific. Best print on the net!
1953, 188th of the 11th Abn, Ft Benning Jump School, Feb 1954, 508th ARCT 1955-56, Beppu Japan, came back to Ft Campbell to make the 101 “legs” jumpers again.
I miss Fort Benning!
Any collector watches this film and drools over what all this gear would be worth today, especially the early jump boots with the cross straps at 10:09
Early forties my father was in the 11th Airborne.
That dummy scene was intense.
Some gutsy boys.
Never seen so many jumpers landing standing up
Thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖
Uncle Jed at 3:50 in.
Came back from the war and struck oil !
Weeeeeell Doggies.
Actually he was George. Fess Parker's Davey Crockett sidekick on the Walt Disney series before striking oil.
@@snakechrmr6398 And he was the first Tin Man on Wizard of Oz before that.
Jed clampett , doin the foot stomp
He was a dancer before he got into acting
Jed was my neighbor in high school - lol big in our Newport Beach sailing community.
Weeeeeell Doggies.
ua-cam.com/video/01mMV6mN1hU/v-deo.html
He was slated to play the Tin Man in Wizard of Oz but the aluminum paint turned out to be very toxic and he was hospitalized.
Interesting for viewers who went to jump sch decades later.
That was our way too PLF
Enjoyed the movie. Charles
Amazing how the training on the ground hasnt changed much from when I did it in 1987 in Australia
These band of brothers who jump from perfectly good airplanes!!??
+torry marrs and some did it with a parachute.
That's the AIRBORNE way!
I went through the Airborne School at Benning at age 40 in 1980. Not a whole lot different from what this film shows, except no one through out a dummy and no one did a free fall to show what happens if you didn't hook up. I guess those particular aspects of the school were no longer needed when I went through. The only non steerable canopy I ever had was the reserve and I never needed to deploy one in 193 exits.
Yeah I guess the chutes were different back in those days. I guess they fell fast and landed hard. Why they had to train to time the touch down, and to roll, to avoid injury on impact. No glider chutes back then.
@@aspenrebel I had some rough landings even with steerable s & Para Commanders as well as a couple of difficult ones with wings. It is all behind me now for sure.
Colonel Kurtz ?
At 4:10 I figured out where the Beverley Hillbillies idea was hatched! Just wait twenty more years Buddy.
Yes, He still was kind of folksy on Barnaby Jones, I've been watching that again too!
Also released under the name "Puddinhead Battalion".
Good movie.
It is interesting to see the transition in Paratroopers during the three years between this film (July 1941) and the D-Day Jumps of June 1944.
I guess they didn't give the haircuts, recruit soldiers wore pajamas, and knew how to march the first day on the job. I would have liked to have been in that army. could be that's why we lost in vietnam, they were too mean to us in basic training.
@@johngillon6969 I had family that served in the 1915-1945 timeframe and the training during the 1920-1941 period was radically different than what most of us went through during the Cold-War-Era. I was surprised at how unprepared my relatives were when they had to face the Axis when we entered the War. They had little-or-no equipment or funds to fully support training. For example, some Marine Corps Reservists were sent into Theatre who had never been to Boot-Camp and had to be trained en-route and in-unit.
@@JDVassar Why we got creamed in first outing in North Africa vs the Vichy French et als.
Yeah there were a lot of developments, innovations, changes, and improvements in a short time. Inventions, equipment, weapons, training, tactics, etc.. Tank warfare wasn't much thought of until Patton kept pushing it. Then look what we did to the Iraqis. Biggest tank battle ever. So many things were developed. Air tactics, dog fighting, bombing runs, sub hunting, use of tanks, not to mention nuclear bombs. All in 3 1/2 years. Pearl Harbor to Nazis surrender (or 3 3/4 years to Japs surrender).
My father was 82nd and my uncle, my father’s brother, was 101st.
My dad was in 101 screaming eagles
My uncle was in Benning before going to the European theater in the 10th armored. Bastogne
Jump school fall of '76. Remember it like it was yesterday...
At the1:06:xx time mark, you can see the cameras bolted to the outside of the C-47 frame.
A good movie.🦅🇺🇸
Who'da thunk that 20 years later the hero would own the Commerce Bank of Beverly Hills?
Say what?
What "hero"? "20 years later" when? 21 + years. Man, did Buddy Ebsen age in 21 years. Commerce Bank was owned by Mr. Drysdale. Well, at least he was President of the Bank. Perhaps I am assuming that he owned it also.
Jed was a para! I knew it.
No he was in the coast guard
Spent a bit as a heroin addict too, junkie.
@@worddunlap No!Uncle Jed chipped?I never heard of that one!
"We don't take drunks". Oh yes hell they did...good grief! They took anything.
By the time Vietnam was ending they took a lot of stoners.
I spent over 11 years on jump status out of more than 27 in service. I can honestly say that yes, they do take drunks.
Locbar, for the time this was patriotic and for the real jumpers fun. It took the sting out of a dangerous and important job. So stop playing your video war games like they are real. What these guys did with primitive chutes took nerve. The movie promoted national morale, cause now adays people with your attitude have ruined our moral and our morale.
Buddy does the first moon walk
Airborne All The Way!!!
AIRBORNE!
if granny had been there with Jed the war wouldn't have lasted another week
Especially with Jethro double naught spying and Ellie's pin point sling shot action.
Thought of Jed too,and granny
Hard to think what Granny would have made of a whole lot of parachutists floating out the sky ...
Un curioso filme sobre lo que era las unidades de paracaidistas estadounidenses de cara a lo que sería el próximo segundo conflicto global en entrar en acción. Toda una joya del cine clásico en poder disfrutar plenamente.
Saludos y bendiciones a todos los cinéfilos de corazón desde Venezuela.
Very very strong movie
Great movie 3/30/24
Great movie and true valor. If my stomach didn't do cart wheels everytime Im too high up it looks like something I would of liked to have tried.😰😱🤢
Jeepahs, fellas. Dames, parachutes, and polished jump boots. It don't get no better than when you get yer jump wings...and a night in the sack wit one of dem dames!
It’s hard to believe that my parents dance that way during the war.
Why, didn't they ever talk to you?
