It takes heat to forge the steal of heroism and no flames burn hotter than the fires of war. These are the stories of common men with the courage and strength to fight and die for the American ideals of Freedom and Liberty. Stories of friendship and comradery punctuated with sudden danger and exciting action set against the sweeping backdrop of World War II Europe.

A Walk In The Sun - 1945 - 117 minutes - Black & White - In the 1943 invasion of Italy, one American platoon lands, digs in, then makes its way inland to attempt to take a fortified farmhouse, as tension and casualties mount. Unusually realistic picture of war as long quiet stretches of talk, punctuated by sharp, random bursts of violent action whose relevance to the big picture is often unknown to the soldiers.

Go For Broke! - 1951 - 92 minutes - Black & White - The 442nd Regiment, comprised of Nisei - loyal Americans of Japanese ancestry - exhibits heroism far beyond the call of duty, overcoming the Nazis as well as the extreme prejudice of white Americans who cannot accept Japs on their side. Van Johnson plays one of those bigots. Academy Award Nominations: Best Story and Screenplay.

Yankee Doodle Donkey - 1945 - 7 minutes, 11 seconds - Color - Animated - Spunky's dream to join the Wags, the almighty dog army, comes true in this tale of bravery and persistence. The advancing flea army is attacking a corps of canine cadets, and the little donkey saves the day by kicking kegs of flea powder into the battlefield!
