A warm and touching tribute to the British Army infantryman.

Despite a framework which stresses regimental traditions and military valour, the film's celebration of the ordinary man as soldier leaves a residue of radicalism.

A rousing flag-waving war drama about the British Army, that was shot during the war and grew out of being a training film.

Description by OLDIES.com:
This British World War II drama stars David Niven as Lieutenant Jim Perry, a seasoned soldier posted to the Duke of Gordons Light Infantry to train new recruits, a diverse and disgruntled group of men with little respect for the Lieutenant. Eventually they come to respect their commanding officer's experience and the unit is shipped out to North Africa to face up to Rommel's troops.
