Thanks, redcoat !

Still with escape movies, which Hollwood actor featured in a famous 1950's POW-camp movie, and in real life participated as a Sergeant in the Ardennes, Rhineland, and Central European theaters before being wounded near the Weser River in April 1945 and being awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart ?

Correct. From my point of view, this movie is better than the negative ratings and comments on IMDB indicate.

Your turn.
