... «* when in doubt , dismount ! «* Awesome and so naive at the same time about the nature of what they had to face for real in combat . Brave men. Panzerfaust fodder . Imagine coming so close to the ennemy that you could trow a grenade at him... in a very slightly armoured vehicle ! Good film , gives a good idea about doctrine and training lagging battlefield experience . No wonder so many were sacrificed in Normandy.Fortunately the later Kangooroos offered more protection when closing up with the ennemy. Nice , the many ways the Bren and the mortar are employed . Amazing crew coordination .
