Whoever put those tents in the middle of the landing zone was nuts . They just keep getting wrecked
Just turned 70 and remember watching this great series who with my Dad. I loved it then, but apparently missed 80% of the episodes. It is so awesome to watch them again and relive memories of my childhood and Dad. This is the greatest TV series in the history of television. Loved Lansing and love Burke. Wish they could have both been on the show together. Awesome writing, good morals to each story. A celebration of traditional virtues like courage and dedication and patriotism.
I am a old fan of 12:00 high I was 6 years old when I seen this . Its been years now till today am 59 now and still love this.
I'm 59 also. Missed this series as a kid. Retired Army 1SG now. I was always into Submarine movies. I had 2 Uncle's in WW2. One a Submariner and the other in the Aluetion Islands with the Army..Neither,no picnic. I like this series. Miss General Savage. Had a few CO'S that were just like him. Straight shooter, to the point.
Mr. Roper Wow These old shows are great
David Winston 3s a company
He should have stuck to that roll instead of this cheese eating publicity jerk.
Can't get any sleep watching this great show . . . 3:24 a.m., on my metroPCS cell phone ! 😎
That’s so true, here I lye in this bed at Arcadia Gardens Retirement Hotel, I am a few months shorty of my 70 birthday, I to can’t sleep. Don’t have Coronavirus but if it was for my TV, iPhone and iPad to keep me going Back I would be asleep.
Same here in Belgium, no sleep till i've seen all the episodes! I can't help it, it's too great! 😮😊
Takes me back to my childhood in the 60s. Most of our parents were from the WWII era and they watched this show and shows like it. Remember, WWII at that time, was only about 23 years in the past. TV was really good back then, even with only 3 Networks.
Damn, why don't they move those two tents that keep getting wracked by those B17 wings.....
Only very recently found this show, didn't get to watch it much as a kid. As a now USAF 30+ year Veteran, like it a whole bunch more. It's my favorite!
Surprisingly good story.
Great series even after all this time, good writings they had not the junk these days/
This is the one that won an Emmy? Unbelievable. I had trouble continuing to watch this after they killed off Robert Lansing despite the fact that my uncle was Bombardier on the B-17 called "wheel n' deal" 323rd squadron 91st bomb group shot down Dec 1st 1943 and spent 18 months as a pow.
918 the Bomb Group H . The H ment heavy BG . Thank you .
33:16, Stukas doubling as fighters!
As former military we were always taught "attention to detail." Not trying to be a know it all, but always tickled when I spot such tech "errors" on tv or in films. Didn't know Luftwaffe had P-47s during the war😊.
Ok, where in the hell is the crash trucks!!???? This is due to the training and experience firefighters have to get the crews out safely! They should have been ALL over this crash scene!!!!
always the same two tents.
Didn't they have the Toby mug story backwards? In the movie when it was facing them there was a mission coming up. And the flag on the right shoulder wasn't in the movie.
Mr. Roper causing trouble
50年前、TBSで毎土曜日の夕方放映されていたよ。この番組で米軍から独軍へ興味が移り、独空軍に関する本を読むようになった。その最たるものが航空ファンだ。今は独のFLUGZEUGだけど。
This episode really reminds at the eldeer version of the movie MEMPHIS BELLE even though I must say I like the modern version more which took included a lot of concepts from this fine show here
The Belle was a sweet lady. In a lot of ways you're right. There are a good number of elements used in this series as well as the Black Sheep Squadron in the 70's.
HE ANSEARED THE PHONE AND SAID GENERAL....LOL
That's answered ! 😱
Every time I see Paul Burke in that P-51 it makes me think of something regarding its use in 12 o’clock high that I have not seen in these you tube comments.
Robert Lansing was personal friends with RCAF pilot Lynn Garrison, who coordinates aerial footage in 1966 for the show. Ironically Garrison owned the P-51 used in the show. Garrison was drawn to the production by his friendship with Robert Lansing, yet Gen Savage character gets killed off so Paul Burke can portray Col Joe Gallagher who is qualified also in P-51’s to fly some sort of mission coordinater in the series.
Oh the irony of this.
Makes me wonder if Lansing and Burke got along on this. Once they killed off Gen Savage was no way to bring him back. Almost like killing off Maclean Stevenson in M*A*S*H, totally unnecessary.
They should have just made him a POW, then somewhere down the road he could have escaped and reappeared on the show.
How come the scenes In supposed English pubs are they managing to serve spirits?, throughout the war the availability of hard liquor (as the Americans say) was scarcer than rocking horse poo 💩, and they are drinking lager (draft beer) when it wasn’t served in English pubs and not brewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧, it strikes me that not a lot of research was put into these scenes, even less than adding any reality to the operation of the bomber groups.
Ya know what . . . if my commanding officer had ever beaten the crash crews to a crash sight . . . OMG. . . there would have been H. E. double toothpicks to pay. Except for the time it was a bird HE was flying of course. I miss my old squadron.
There is a mysterious FW that returns in every episode! A large numbe r 3 on the engine!
Don't .."mess"...with Colonel Gallagher.
I saw some stuka JU-87 diver bombers; I didn't know they used them as fighters
they didn't, they were to slow.
they have dropped wings like a Corsair
One of the laughs about this series is the fact that makers seem to think that Scotch was readily available ....especially in civilian bars.........Spitfires and Stukas for enemy fighters.......Oh my.
The military and Hollywood are hand in hand. TM transman Ted Masters
Good ending
FWIW, "The All Americans" is the motto of the 32nd Field Artillery Battalion... (1st ID)
2nd to None! 2nd Infantry Division Artillery. 1982- 1985.
I still think the mission is the best sfx scene ever.Great story too if you like make believe…
WHAT NO FIRE TRUCKS//?
That surely is the question
I'm 62, however have no firm lnowledge of this great show, as a child !
It didn't 'rerun' much, it seems.
I remember them from first run, haven't seen them for decades until now.
Don’t feel bad about three years younger than you lol 2022
The aircraft spotted by Gallagher at 33:18 ain’t fighters but its still a good show.
Wholly SHEET! The brunette, actress Susan Brown. The only other thing I've ever seen her in was a Barney Miller episode. She was a shrink trying to talk Barney into an affair. LOL! He turned her down.
I think they try really hard to be as authentic as they can but they make a few errors still. Like a bomber squadron commander wouldn't be flying missions in a fighter whenever the mood struck him.
Also when it showed the German fighters about to attack the bombers they showed a wing of Stuka Dive bombers. The Stukas would have turned fail and run the second they saw American escorting fighters as the Stuka was a death trap when opposed by fighters. Not only that the Stukas would have a very hard time attacking as the B17 was a very fast other in its day, one of the faster bombers in fact and the Stuka was far slower. Kind of tough to attack when you can't catch what you're shooting at.
It's not as if they deliberately choose to use Stuka footage. Clearly they didn't have access to anything better.
I thought this one was about the plane Names "The all American" but I guess I was wrong it may have not even been a B-17 names that. Guess I was wrong on that one as there was a B-17 Names "the all American which was hit by a German fighter on a bombing raid over the Tunis dock area, the plane flew into the fighter. now of the crew was hurt but the plane was almost cut in half fwd of the tail section it made it back to base and landed safe.
The plane names were never registered or official. They were allowed on some but not all bases. Most bases eventually allowed the crews to name their planes for morale reasons. There were many planes of the same names form base to base. Some planes had many names during the war if they had survived. As such just because a named plane is mentioned in an article most times it is not possible, unless the unit is mentioned, to really identify the particular aircraft.
no the all American is a famous baseball player
@@spacepatrolman Jim Thorpe
One of the best in Olympic history play baseball played football track and field metals and all of them a shining example
Just kind of noticed something weird in this episode where in the world was the crash crew, sleeping or playing cards? .
The Army largely felt this way towards Joe DiMaggio. He was coddled by the brass & that did more harm than good to the troops. None of the vets around here had anything good to say of him.
Good series but some of the clips included are ridiculous - Ju52 Stuka as fighters and Spitfires with RAF roundels as 109s? Basic errors that could have been eliminated with a little care as there is a mountain of relevant footage.
Ju-87
I didn't know Mr Roper was a WW2 vet...
Norman Fell was a tail gunner on a B-25 Mitchell in the United States Army Air Forces during World War II
Norman Fell ...who could have guessed .
Mr. Roper
I would have thought when a plane crash lands the proper people would get there first, namely fire fighters not press or base commanders? Also at 33:52 it looks like a Spitfire was attacking the B-17?
Yes, a Spitfire!
At about 35:00 Gallagher is seen shooting up a German fighter - a few seconds later as the enemy explodes that aircraft has sprouted fixed undercarriage!!
Looked like P-47s at 33:42 and a Spitfire at 33:52.
Since when does a 2nd Lieutenant call a bird Colonel by his first name?
When he's just a groomed PR poster boy?
Galagar must b ten times over his 25 missions very risky no milk run he's in
What happen to the co-pilot he was gone when Ted Masters came forward
Joe lands then helps lol
2:40 OPENING THEME
How many Piccadilly Lilys were there?
No sign of the crash tenders.
Mr. Roper was in the Air Corps??
Ya missed the PR guy -'no one's stopping us' !
What a great TV show this is.The beginning,they nailed it,media & it's fake news
QM didn't really produce it he did cop shows they had another producer QM was called in at the last minute as a hatchet man
This show is fake.
Yes ketes ketes film jadul zoos
So where the hell were the crash crews?
A British soldier asking for a baseball players autograph!!! You have got to be kidding! "Baseball" who cares! A cricket player yes.. also 33:17 fighters? They're dive bombers "Stukas", lots of bull shit in this series but I like it anyway.
No call it what is ROUNDERS.
No fire trucks on that base?
There were fire trucks. Didn't you hear the sirens after the plane crash landed?
@@theresadelicot5104 Well, what were they doing, sitting back and watching Gallagher do 5 or 6 rescue visits to the inside of the about-to-explode plane?
That had to be one of the worse staged fights on tv, even what lead up to it
stuka,s as german fighter,s ? where were the real films
They only used a very limited amount of stock footage. I love it when they are bombing a city, and the target is farm land.
German fighters...Stukas FFS did not attack bomber formations.....oh wait a minute it just morphed into a Spitfire attacking the B17's.. that's OK that's normal for this programme. 🤣🤣
WHat heroic people. 20,000 feet and no oxygen...lmao
Real men don't need no stinkin' oxygen.
Without that 'stinkng' oxygen we would not have life as we know today.
Anyway people have climbed 28000 feet without oxygen cylinders but that had time for acclamitation
Remember, it’s TV!
@@jameskoch7190 Yeah, tgey do shoe oxygen masks in a few episodes, but mostly it's sacrificed for runtime and dramatic license.
Safer onboard smoking at that alt, yessir
"... football is different from soccer ...." ????
They are the same game, how can it be different. Soccer is the core football, with different variations having to have an adjective prepended to describe them e.g. 'Rugby Football', 'American Football', 'Aussie Rules Football' etc. But Soccer is the one that doesn't need the word 'Football' attached because IT IS 'football', purely.
American football is a different game than soccer the rest of the world calls football so when an American says football he's not thinking of the game soccer
Same in Australia, soccer is the game with the round ball, football is Rugby, league, VFL or American Football.
Two questions; number one: I read that during the war only about 10-20% of all the bombs we dropped actually hit the target. some of you history buff out can you give me an answer;
Question two: if we had the type of ordnance that we have now: how long do you thing it would shortened WW-II in both theaters of operation
+John Moore Not sure about question #1,,,but I would venture about 3 or 4 days for question #2 lol
Question one it was area bombing it depends what the target was
Wasn't the ordnance, it's the GPS and guidance.....
Further, post-war analysis revealed that American bombs in Europe were too light to destroy German factories consistently.
Well that became a salute to propaganda
