My mother took me to see this in the late 1950s and the adventure of the movie still holds true. The detail of the army fighting in the Florida everglades against a determined foe is still thrilling as I watched it on Y/T recently. When they attacked to fort and won, is still a great military maneuver. The manner in which the army works in perfect sequence is so impressive. In my vacation travels through Central America I visited many such Spanish Forts. This is a very realistic and thrilling movie even by todays standards.
