BTW, I actually liked 'The Devil's Brigade'... flakey, yes, but better than some others of that era.

 I agree with you, that Burton movie is great - is it called, "The Desert Rats"? Is that the one where Burton is captured at some point and he meets Rommel? Is there also a subplot involving Richard Burton's character's old school master who appears in his unit as a ranker?
