A P-40 pilot has engine trouble & a radio malfunction and makes a crash landing in deep snow & trees. Gradually, he remembers what he was taught to survive in the Arctic, or figures it out for himself -- the hard way. Lots of useful cold weather survival skills are shown in detail. Get this film plus "Land and Live in the Jungle" & "Land & Live in the Desert" in our DVD "Land and Live in Extreme Environments for World War 2 Airmen" bit.ly/2RzE5T9

This is back before little dictators with stripes told ya what u can and can't have in air war. I preferred during my tenure to carry as much as ammo as possible as well as weapons & leave em all behind mind screwed anyway. Even a dishonorable discharge during Iraq woulda been better than being there.. I carried as much personal ammo and U.A. gear as I could and it saved my life. At the Captains Mast I had the pleasure of telling JAG folks to kiss my fat Hillbilly ass right when & where I was sworn in. I had a goddamned audience behind me that could not be silenced. They kept cheering over the prosecutor until the case was dismissed. Too bad other guys didn't have the known & UNKNOWN friends I had. I left Norfolk kinda humbled that many guys stuck up for me.

I was born in Alaska and lived there 30 years. This video is excellent. I should only stress that there is not enough emphasis on the on the lack of daylight. In south-central Alaska, in December, the sun rose at 10 in the morning and set at 3 in the afternoon. The further north, the fewer hours of daylight. Yes, start a fire and make a frame for the parachute shelter. Do your best to pile spruce branches to get off the snow. If you can do these things in three to five hours you are doing well.

There was another Pennington In Three Forks Montana this winter, 2018/19. He was stranded out on a rural road overnight at 38 below Fahrenheit. The ambulance driver showed me a picture of his hand. His fingers were black from frost bite. I said "I hope they can save his fingers". The ambulance driver said " no his finger are gone". I've learned to go heavy on the survival supplies. 15 years in Search and Rescue and 37 years as a truck driver in the Rocky Mtn West. Its a hassle to carry around until you need it. And I've needed my supplies a few times over the years. This is one of my favorite films because it's relevant to my area of operation. Thanks for posting!

I remember my Dad bringing these various training films home for us kids to watch (I was in the 3rd and 4th grades then) when we were living on Adak Island in the Alaska Territory (yup , not a State back in 1949-50). Alaska became a State in 1959. As my Dad was an Air-Sea Rescue pilot then, he felt for some reason we just had to see these films. They are very good, and they did help me in later life when I taught Search and Rescue to Civil Air Patrol Senior Members and Cadets.

I remember seeing this film when I about 7-8 years old, when my Dad and our family were stationed on Adak Island, Alaska Territory in 1949-50. My Dad was an Air/Sea Rescue pilot, flying SA-16 (small twin engined) seaplanes. He and others were allowed to bring these films home for general viewing. This was one of many we used to see back then. Definitely taught me lots about survival in different "hostile" environments. Used to fall back on these films when I taught CAP cadets survival skills.

Pennington really drove home the point!! I grew up in Idaho, so have spent a lot of time in the snow. In the winter, I always carry a kit in the trunk of my car. I don't expect to get lost in the wilderness, but I'm ready if I slide off the road or something. In addition to my tire chains and tools (essential) a full set of extra clothes and boots, shovel, blue tarp, sleeping bag, propane stove and pan, along with a couple cans of Spam and tuna in oil--doesn't freeze solid like the cans in water. And these days a cell phone of course. It all fits in a box, I just keep it in there all Winter.

I just finished a good book on this topic. It's a true story of a B-24 pilot Lt. Leon Crane, who is the only survivor in an Alaskan crash in Dec. 1943. It's got a long title. "81 days Below zero - The incredible survival story of a WWII pilot in Alaska's Frozen Wilderness". Author is Brain Murphy..Published June 2015. He's is given up for dead but fights to survive against nature at its coldest. Great adventure story. I got it at the library. Maybe you can too.

They forgot a lot of the most important parts - like what to do about all the leaking fuel from your upturned wreck of a plane (which is probably on fire), taking advantage of engine heat before it's gone, what to do if you don't actually land in the woods, digging/building snow shelters (Boy Scout stuff). On some WWII aircraft (like the C-47 that found him) the control surfaces were covered with doped fabric that's incredibly flammable, and their structural members might be made of wood. This seemed geared toward a single, narrow scenario that wouldn't be much use to pilots stranded in slightly different arctic conditions.

He should have built his shelter under the wing of the plane. put brush on both sides of the wing, then cover that with the parachute. Hold parachute in place with more brush. Then he could have built a fire at the tip of the wing/entrance.

I wrote Lt Pennington 30 years ago but no reply... he is featured at conclusion minus his toes. Pennington b1915-d2005 chose the warmth of Longboat Key, Florida to retire. I couldn’t find records of Pennington making more flight to/from Alaska while with 7th Ferrying Group. Corresponded with several other ferry pilots on the flight in November 1942 that resulted in Lt. Pennington’s forced landing of the P-36 he was ferrying south bound from Anchorage to Great Falls, Montana. Plane went down near Wellesley Lake in Yukon Territory and this film was one of the results of an inquiry.

Great clip thanks. Very watchable sitting here in my nice warm house, but compared to the (British)training films I saw in my early service, far more likely to be enjoyed(and thus watched and listened to much more attentively and discussed by a group of soldiers than the dry offerings we Brits had to watch,. A little bit of humour, even in such a serious subject, helps hold the interest, hence the message takes hold better- this film was well balanced in that respect. We often would have been training very hard physically, in cold weather, and the training team would cram in an instructional film. No video in those days, just a cine projector in a darkened billet, so cold exhausted troops+warmth+shelter+boring, if essential film= zzzzzz! You Yanks have never been scared to throw money at a project to get it done well!

Fire is your only life line in arctic conditions all else is secondary. If help doesn't come,, well, just pray it comes. Every thing in deep snow becomes very much more difficult. Your body becomes exhausted very quickly. You'll spend most of you time trying to supply fire wood. A hatchet is your best friend then. Your plane was full of gas, if any left be prepared to torch craft for signal fire if you hear search craft. A fresh fall of snow will make your crash sight almost invisible. Your in a void of millions of acres of wilderness, to find you, hope for a miracle. Before g.p.s. it was darn hard to locate anything very easily.

Great video i remember the ones they showed us so boring this one was great they should have continued using it. I also remember they did make the guys who screwed up do briefings about how and why they messed up and we learned a hell of a lot more from that experience then today's touchy feely BS way of doing business. Thank for the video.

Here's a classic book about a French adventurer who chose to live a year inside of Artic Circle: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabloona Kabloona ("Fool") is anyone who goes into the Artic and doesn't know what he is doing. He learned a lot in that year. The most important survival tool is a "snow knife". How to make a shelter in open space.

If this guy can build 3 signal fires with wood, another fire for warmth, a lean-to shelter, make snow shoes, snare and cook a rabbit, make a pair of mukluks ALL in one day following a crash - I would say he and Robinson Crusoe were cousins. But this film by the military is totally exaggerated. So scoring this out of 10 (and taking in considerations that this is from 1944 - I rated it at 6.

Representatives of major tobacco companies routinely gave away free cigarettes on movie sets during this period & encouraged smoking being shown in movies. It was an integral part of their advertising/pr strategy.

Aaron Davis From what I’ve heard, American servicemen were always very well provided with tobacco, even during combat. Civilians at home were rationed it. It was often used overseas as currency on the black market.

Looked like the original search plane was a B-18 Bolo. The RCAF had the B-18 titled the Digby Mk1. Almost all the US B-18's were employed for coastal patrol but Digbys were used for search and rescue in Canada. Makes me wonder if this whole things was filmed n Canada.
