On the General's sleeve in the beginning, you can see the patch of the 1st Infantry Division, a.k.a. "The Big Red One".
Originally aired as an ABC Movie of the Week on 1/27/70.
The knife Capt. Carter (Stephen Boyd) throws into a tree looks like a Marine Raider Stiletto. The knife Pvt. Lewis (Billy Dee Williams) has and throws looks like a Ka-Bar fighting knife, or one of its many clones.
"[reading from Pvt. Brightman's notebook] Lt. Edward Wallace: "July 25. We have been assured by Major Wallace that there will be a rest for us when we reach Berlin. The fighting has been hard, the strain almost unbearable. I will receive the Medal of Honor from General Eisenhower but the heroism of 'B' Company will be preserved by the men who have seen us fight and die.""
"[last lines] First soldier in truck: Hey boy, what are you standin' there for? Second soldier in truck: Hey boy, you better get some latrines dug! [Second soldier throws a shovel at the wounded Pvt. Crunk. Captain Carter picks it up and slams it against the bridge railing] Capt. Beau Carter: Hey, medic!"
