Day 7 Land and Freedom. One of the better films on the SCW. A period I have always fancied having a go at.
My father tried to volunteer to go to fight in Spain but they told him to bugger off as he was to young.

“Let’s call it 12 O’Clock High and have Gregory Peck toke on a roll-up for the poster.”
“Er, are you sure about that Darryl?”

I am not sure about the blurb either.
"A Story of 12 men as their women never knew them"

It's been a while since I last watched it, but I don't recall seeing any women in the film.

That's why they didn't know them.

Sometimes buggers can't be choosers.

I have no experience of such circumstances.
