Robert Walker played a disturbed young guy in a Star Trek episode in this same time period. His name in the episode was Charlie. As was Claude Aiken's character in this, no coincidence I don't think. And it's nice to see the Germans got a new Halftrack for Season 5. The one with the turret was really fake looking. This looks like a White HalfTrack, used by us.

Seventh Circle Racing color TV was around in the '50's. The industry fought over the 2 types and it wasn't untill mid late '60's that industry standards were agreed on. You can watch the first few episodes of Science Fiction Theatre in color, then they switched to B&W because of cost and lack of standards and color TV's. Ahead of their time.

They were available for a long time prior to this but they were quite expensive. When black and white is what you are accustomed to you enjoy it just the way another viewer enjoys colour. As a kid I watched Bugs Bunny, Popeye, the Flntstones etc all in glorious black and white. I didn't want for colour for a second.

The color images are crisper (due to the type of film stock or different cameras?). The main thing is back when this was filmed, color was the cool, up-to-date thing. Your show was viewed as outmoded or second class if you didn't switch. Staying in B&W was about like not having a smartphone today. (PS - France looks awfully dry this fall of 1944.)

Many would consider this the Big 3 of T.V.'s all time great war series. Combat: 10/2/62-3/14/67. 152 episodes. 12 O'clock High 9/18/64-1/13/67 78 episodes and The Rat Patrol 9/12/66-3/18/68 58 episodes. These shows were popular with the youth of the day and World War Two veterans that were basically barely over 40 to barely into their 50's. Their demise was the current events of the day. The Gulf Of Tonkin Incident 8/2/64 followed by General Frederic Karch and the 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade landing on Nam O Beach, north of Da Nang, Vietnam on 3/8/65 ( publicly staged and photographed, LBJ's idea ) considered the starting point of American troop build up and involvement on a large scale in Vietnam and The Battle of Ia Drang 11/14/65. Not fully understood and therefore supported at first by the American public, by the end of 1966 and into 1967 public opinion was turning as American casualties rose and forces built up with rules of engagement and no exit strategy. With the real thing in our living rooms every night on the news and too many of our boys coming home in body bags each week ( 152 on average each week during American involvement years considered 1965-1972 December/January 1973 source: The 10,000 Day War Michael Maclear ) it's no wonder the network execs pulled the plug on two of these shows in 1967 despite steady ratings throughout their runs and regardless they all took place during WW2, the most righteous of all wars. Surprising that The Rat Patrol lasted into 1968 as by that time the anti-war movement in America had been firmly established and active for easily 12-18 months.

I could see the production studios under pressure from the TV makers to phase out B&W shows, so as to induce the american public to replace their B&W sets with the new technology. A number of series that started in B&W transitioned to color during this period. All through the 50s and 60s my family never new what it looked like to see shows in color, as we were too poor to afford a color TV.
