Now I know were the makers of the modern World War II Shooters and the makers of XCOM had taken their inspiration for the shooting scenes from, seriously.

One of few tales where late Mr. Peabody got to show us what he really could do, great episode "Littlejohn."

I'm so glad that I found KZread and all the folks who download all these great old movies and shows. I remember watching these when I was growing up with my dad. At that time WW2 was basically recent and it gave us kids a look into what WWII was like. One thing I appreciate that you don't have to have all the blood & guts like the movies we have now. Like they say sometimes less is better.

I notice the name of Warren Spahn in the credits, and if that refers to the Major League Baseball pitcher (who served in the US military during WW2) that would be a connection that is notable.One of the most remarkable pitchers in the Hall Of Fame.

Like so many exceptional episodes of Combat, this one defines not only what a soldier is, but what a friend is as well. Thank you for posting the best show ever, Combat, power packed with life lessons, to inspire us on ward and to not give up in these perilous times. A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

3:15 Supposedly, that's left handed pitching legend Warren Spahn as a German soldier. Spahn, as an American combat engineer, fought against real German soldiers in the Battle of the Bulge and at the Ludendorff Bridge, and received a battlefield commission. He doesn't get a mention in the credits in this 1963 episode of Combat. He was also one of the greatest Major League pitchers of all time with 363 major league victories despite missing 3 seasons at war for the USA.

That was Warren Spahn. . .served in Europe in WW2 and one heck of a lefthander.

I watched Combat with my Dad. He was a WW2 vet. However, after a while he quit watching it and I couldn’t watch it any more. Looking back now, I think it brought back too many bad memories. He never talked about his service and I never asked him about it. However he liked McHales Navy and Hogan’s Heroes. He laughed while watching those shows. Sadly, he died in 1969 before we could form a serious father and son relationship. Miss you Dad.

Me too, along with 3 or 5 other kids during the time Combat! was on primetime on ABC. Our neighborhood was France almost all day long on a Saturday or sometimes during the summer. A lot of the old houses in my old neighborhood were built by old Italian Stone Masons which are still there. So it did give it that WWII feel to it when we played Combat! Or we pretended that we were in the South Pacific, and we would head for the beach and dig fox holes in the sand. The adults would get a kick out of that when they saw us with our helmets and our WWII toy rifles and machine guns. With one kid, he and I would be at his grandmother's house and she had two lounge chairs that would lean back and we pretended that we were flying a bomber. He was the pilot and I was the copilot. It was cool the way we moved around on those lounge chairs like we were getting hit by enemy fighter pilots or the guns down below were trying to bring our bomber down. Kids don't play like that anymore. I am so glad I was a kid in the 60's. Now at the age of 63 I still have those fond memories and always will.
