COMBAT! s.3 ep.32: "Beneath the Ashes" (1965)

[@Palanibert]

I watched Combat! when l was a kid and even then l could tell how much better it was than other shows of any genre. Now, as an adult l can appreciate it even more.

[@bertburns9611]

I'm 67, people today don't realize the sacrifices that our parents and grandparents made from 1915 to 1948 so that they have the freedom and the right to be so stupid acting today. My father fought the Japanese while my uncle fought the Germans, I could always see the horror of war in their eyes even when they tried to hide it. They truly were the greatest generation.

[@colombomofo]

I've never seen this show until now, grew up in the '60's, but I am amazed at the quality of this show watching it on KZbin.

[@supermom644]

I'm trying not to cry, used to watch with my dad, he been gone for over 45 yrs, died young, was in Korean war, never talked about it, bits and pieces about being thankful for this nation, that us kids didn't get until we lost him.

[@texaspatriot4215]

This storyline hit a cord with me, my dad's father died in 1943, my dad was in the Army in a combat zone and was not allowed to go back to the States for his funeral, that stayed with my dad the rest of his life.

[@timski9063]

War brings tragedies that are out of our control. My mother died a year ago and I couldn't go to her funeral due to covid. I know how he feels.

[@davidwillismedeiros7409]

I'd say that No other - war movie would not be as great as (Combat) will ever be. This show will always outdo anything. Awesome show with Vic Morrow. He was all this show had. Awesome Guy. RIP Vic.

[@gordonmarr6463]

Wow. What a great drama and serious history lesson. I first watched this show when I was 8 years old. Now at 68 I love it more and appreciate.

[@Fat12219]

Good 👍 old days 😮

[@quentinburns8298]

It's amazing to think. Here Vic Morrow was, great actor, about 35. In the war, a battled hardened Sargent like him would have been maybe 22 - 23 years old. John Basilone of the USMC, perhaps the hardest, toughest NCO of the war was only 28 when he was killed on Iwo Jima day 1. Don't get me wrong, Vic Morrow is a television ICON, nothing less, because of this role. He was perfect.

[@ericthered760]

Same goes for Rick Jayson, who plays a "lieutenant," but is obviously greying around the temples. Most likely men at that rank would have been no older than 25 during the war.

[@fazole]

@@ericthered760 Well, war ages you. No sleep and under constant stress with poor food takes its toll. I've read veteran accounts of the war where someone's hair turns white and his jewels shrivel up. That's a symptom of very poor health in a young man.

[@manuelbermudez211]

Shriveled jewels ? Really ? That’s a great reason for never having anymore wars. Or maybe letting females do all the fighting. Just sayin …

[@mikejschin]

Thank you for mentioning John Basilone. He was a machine gunner on Guadalcanal and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his heroism there. Transferred to the US to sell war bonds, he volunteered to return to the Fleet Marine Force for action. Exceptionally brave and tough, John Basilone thereby gave up a life of comfort and adulation to serve again with his fellow Marines, and ultimately to die while rallying troops on Iwo. Semper fi.

[@lucky2knight]

[@Mike-01234]

Army rarely sent soldiers back to America after they were deployed in WW2 unless they were injured to the point could no longer do their job. If they got a leave they may be sent to the rear and could go into towns or cities. The ship ride back to America could take up to 10-15 days depending on where they left from.

Now that I'm older and a bit wiser I spot all kinds of mistakes in this fine series. I was in the Army. No one was shooting at me and I didn't have to shoot at anyone else. These so called experienced soldiers waltz into a strange town without taking cover and especially not looking up.

German ambushes worked when there weren’t any regulars to get killed. Just leaving sarge or Lt to win the battle or escape from it …

As a millennial I am always shocked at how many bullet wounds the WW2 soldiers got and just kept on fighting throughout the war. Today's soldiers that I went to school with all seem to get out on disability for knee or back pain. Different food back then I guess.

[@jimw.4155]

I think Robert Fortier played a very good part as Capt. Jampel. He just seemed to speak with "military precision" when briefing the Lt's about the pending attack. Did anyone notice the dead cows? When you see actual photos of Normandy and that area after the invasion there were dead horses and cows all over. This was a nice touch of authenticity added to the episode.

[@MollyMLewis]

Yes, but unfortunately it is a reused scene from "The Pillbox". And the cow is clearly fake.

GR; I got through the 152 episodes. Took me 8 months and shocked You Tube left them up. Had not seen since I was 9 to 14, the original airings. What I learned. Saunders was not gruff, but cared for his men. Rick Jason had a sweetheart deal. He should have kicked some of his money to the others. Jack Hogan could act, and Sarge never got pissed off at Caje. Morrow should have had Hollywood at its knees with offers post Combat. He must have been tough to deal with. Jason and Morrow's passing.Sad

Indeed it is strange. Both actors Jason and Morrow were indeed top and they both had tried to work on themselves meaning taking advanced courses in acting and directing also doing script writing. Maybe Morrow hwas the more stubbern one not to give up on a filming carrier . Without his daedly accident in 1982 who knows ... The most successfull of the bunch was " CAJE " - Pierre Javier. He became an asked Editor later on and almost got an Emy for his editing work on the world famous Mini Series SHOGUN that lived ion as a Board Game and atacitcal Computer game in theTOTAL WAR sereis.

In reality, ALL of the troops become deaf. Yes, it's that bad. It's nothing for guys to be deaf until sometime later that week. Such noise also is the reason why PTSD was originally referred to as 'shell-shock.' Close enough, the detonations concuss the brain. This causes memory loss, too. Suddenly, the trooper is totally disoriented.

Also find it interesting that even when the regulars - like "Littlejohn" (Dick Peabody) in this episode -- get wounded, they don't get a ticket home (which would have been the case with most serious combat wounds), but instead are patched up and ready for next week's episode !!

[@fazole]

@@ericthered760 If you read veteran accounts from late 44 onward, soldiers were definitely being returned to combat after being wounded. During the Hürtgen campaign they were putting barely recovered men on the line due to the losses. A good book is "If You Survive" by George Wilson. He fought as a Lt. from St. Lo to the end.

[@edbecka233]

@Bob Malack - no sir, the trigger group was not deactivated, or you wouldn't see him firing blanks. His BAR did have the concealed "Hollywood" blank adaptor, a bore restrictor which allowed the gas from the blanks to build enough pressure to function the action. All the semi- and full-auto weapons had this modification. The gas-operated weapons thereby had sufficient gas pressure to function, and the recoil-operated weapons were given enough recoil by the jet effect of the gas leaving the tiny orifice in the restrictor. Of course, the bolt guns didn't need the blank adaptor. (retired firearms instructor/armorer/competitive shooter)
