THEY WERE EXPENDABLE is available on AMAZON, I purchased it recently...FLYING LEATHERNECKS on the same DVD

Good video Colin, thanks for posting it. Should be shown to the women these days who complain they don't get equal opportunities to men. I liked the bit where the woman was brazing with no gloves and nail polish.😁 You can imagine the complaining today if they were asked to do work like these women .😭 Now they think it's a major feat if they drive a truck. Things have changed, and the world's gone soft. Goes for a lot of young guys these days as well.

If anyone can find it the movie 'They were expendable' 1945, (John Wayne, Robert Montgomery) is one of the best PT movies, and reasonably historically accurate.

Thankyou. Now I hav some enthusiasm for the DUMAS PT109 kit sitting unopened in my livingroom !!

Interesting, reminds me of the 1940s radio newscasts, the cinema newsreels, the strident voiceover, etc.

Very interesting and informative, thank you.👍
