I had heard the same story on filming EATG as Crapgame did.
Now for Lifeboat. I had heard how he appeared but I have forgotten but, I will take a stab at it.
Wasn't Hitchcock playing the part of the wounded man?
Geeeeeeeeezzz--it's been about 28 years since I last saw this on TV.

Yes, Hitchock appears in Lifeboat as a person in an ad in a newspaper. Back to you Martin.

I thought it was, "we're the horses," when, after the battle, the Captain wanted to bring the PAK back to camp with them but didn't have anything (horses)to pull it with.

Here is a simple one:
Who played "Maggot" in The Dirty Dozen? and who killed him?

Sorry, Carl - I'd nearly overlooked this...
As I'm just about to disappear for a week, maybe we should revert to you for the next question to keep the thread going...?

Whats the name of the war movie that had Werner Plusket (Hans-Christian Bleth) in a bunker near a beach. One of his lines was something like: ((In Deutsch of course)) Mein GOTT, sie invasion--sie kommen. Also, "6,000 ships--and they are coming directly to me!"
