| Trivia | This movie was originally going to star Rory Calhoun, Jeffrey Hunter, Gary Merrill and Robert Wagner, according to a May 1951 edition of "The Hollywood Reporter". See more » |
| Goofs | A lieutenant orders a soldier who is planting land mines to dig them in deep. Doing this would make them useless; mines need to be planted as close to the surface as possible in order for their detonators to be activated by either a vehicle or a soldier's weight (depending on the type of mine).

Cpl. Denno:
Some men are afraid of high places. Some are afraid of water. And some are afraid of being responsible for the death of a lot of other guys. See more » |
