    Just so those that don't know understand that 90% or more of the B17 film is real from ww2 army air corp films taken for the public to see us fighting the war on newsreels at the movies in America. They had no computers to organize these clips so it had to be hand chosen and spliced into the new films taken for television. I's no wonder we see bloopers all over such as a left turn when they said 90" right turn etc. They only had one or two 17s for close ups and rarely flew them for the show. Even with the bloopers I think they did a great job, We are spoiled today with the tools Hollywood has at their disposal. The honor is in watching real footage of the soldiers who gave their lives in a lot of this footage. Real people going up in those bombers at subzero temperatures getting frostbite and being shot at and knowing they're about to die every time they go. I salute all of them all.

      Ken Knotts The actors Bruce Dern and Tome Skerrit each played 5 different Army Air Corps characters in the series. They are only two examples. This was done often in early television. I think it was better accepted in those days because people were more appreciative of the story as realism and not so hung up on the graphic realism that we get today. Before the 1980’s real people had to perform real stunts. Now we get imagined stunts and characters survive.

      @Maria Kelly I don't mind a bit of comedy for levity either. But good comedy takes the funny things in life and exaggerates them somewhat, say like what Seinfeld &co. do to real-life idiosyncrasies. However, for me, if the underlying situation is utterly not believable, the comedy fails to work, especially if it is in the context of a serious show. To me, nobody will accept that a weak society lady and an old housekeeper with a broom will render General Savage helpless, to the point where he screams for his aide to come rescue him.

      Well in the film Gen Savage had a nervous breakdown and could command his wing anymore...which was still early in the war.
      The Lt Col that was the exec, which Peck busted and Lansing dressed down, took his place in Piccadilly Lilly that day...which implies that officer was going to be wing cmdr after the film ended.
      In the series, they instead killed Savage and Burke's character reluctantly took over.
      It is not inconsistent with the film...but changing leads was not popular with audiences.

    And Nothing better did come out of it all. Only a temporary respite from war. The world today laughs and spits in the faces of all those men and women who struggled so hard for our freedom. And also it seems to me that the Lady in this episode would be rich enough to just build another home elsewhere, and or the USAAF could have funded such another build.

    It’s so accurate about the life of a bomber crew but why did they not look at photos of women in the 1940s and change the 60s hairstyles and clothes?Some of the girls look like they just come from a shopping trip to Carnaby street.Wartime conditions were. Make do and mend!

      @Maria Kelly Sorry, sometimes I respond so quickly while doing work that I misspeak. Just replace the opening word "You" in my previous comment with "Jay M". In any case, I simply meant to respond to your question, "Who's dead in this episode?" by noting that I was referring to the death in a later episode, not this one. We just went around each other in circles. (P.S. I generally found your comments on the series enjoyable and sensible.)

      Yes, if the US hadn't of came into the war England would be screwed (the whole planet would have been screwed). However, for 18 months England was the ONLY country in Europe fighting the Nazis. They went through hell. During the Blitz, England was bombed every night for months. And yes, Roosevelt was able to get them supplies with the Lend-lease program. But give them credit for hanging on until we were able to "save their asses."

Armstrong of the 306th as well as some others, a few generals presumably

      In the 1949 movie (and novel) Gen Savage was a staff cmdr at Pinetree over the 4 wings. His friend, a Col, couldn't do the job, had major losses, and got relieved and reassigned to Pinetree. The Lt Gen over Savage ordered him to fix the problems in the wing and take a Col's duty. Savage agreed.
      Watch the movie, then rewatch S1.
