I haven't seen that in forever.

That reminds me of some kind of eco commercial waaaay back in the 70s that said "Forever is a long, long time."

Costa: Listen to me, Cooney! If you put me and my men in a wringer -- if you send us out there and let us hang -- I swear, I swear by all that's holy, I'll come back. I'll come back and take this grenade and shove it down your throat and pull the pin!

And Jack Palance would have, if a tank didn't run over his arm!

Using M-5 Stuarts for German armor the only draw back I can see for this excellant film. Buddy Espsen does a great job as well. As does Lee Marvin as the Colonel, experience from being in the Corps I assume.

I heard that when the Army brass finally realized that "Attack" was an anti-war film, they withdrew their support, so the flic had to make do with what it had.
