Just started watching this 1957 black & white flick "Men In War", a story about an infantry platoon in Korea engaged in a fighting retreat from the North Koreans. This is a classic for fans of B&W war movies, I got it thru my Netflix membership, and I don't know how I overlooked this one before, it's excellent, highly recommended. It features a young Vic Morrow (that's right...Sgt. Saunders of TV's Combat) in a secondary role, he's even got his trademark camo covered helmet that he wore during his years filming the Combat TV series. Apparently this is available in a "colorized" version as well, but frankly I prefer the original black and white format.
