You were on the right tract PAPA CADET, but, in the movie "Twelve o'clock high",
The movie starts out with Dean Jagger buying a vase of a bandaged one eyed bandit, which he recognized as his squadrens mascot. he peddals his bike down this desolate country road when he suddenly stops, and goes up to this fence and stares. In time, the field , covered with overgrowth, becomes transformed, There is the sound of a motor reving up. then another one revs it engines, and then the sound of many engines revering up and then the grassy field clears away and you are back in time. the din is ear shattering. planes begin taking off and without realizing it you are there with the men who will take you along with them on their journey to to who knows where. A great movie showing the strain on BOYS who wondered if the next mission would be their last. The lead in to amovie is to me
the greatest in movie history.If you have seen it, you KNOW what I mean.
