Be that as it may, and personalities aside, all these men had "the right stuff". Here we have some candid and
some staged film of Barber, Lanphier, Mitchell, Holmes, et al, in and around P-38s at Fighter II, their base on Guadalcanal

"The Memphis Belle": William Wyler's classic wartime documentary about
the 25th and final mission of the 91st Bomb Group B-17F "Memphis Belle" and her crew. Their successful completion
of 25 missions - the first bomber and crew in 8th Air Force to complete a full tour of operations and go home - was cause
for celebration and worthy of a documentary film. The result is without doubt the most famous Army Air Forces
documentary to come out of the war. [Narrated. All Color]
"Combat America": Famous actor Clark Gable volunteered for Officer's Candidate
School, finishing up in November 1942. Later, after earning his gunner's wings, Army Air Forces chief Gen. Hap Arnold
directed Gable to proceed to England and make a documentary film concentrating on the combat phase of aerial gunnery,
which would be used for instructional purposes of AAF personnel. The film was shot entirely "on location"
in the air and on the ground with tons of footage of Eighth Air Force combat crews and planes, ground crews, off hours
activities and even Capt. Gable's humorous advice to a ball turret gunner who was a pastry chef in civilian life. All
aspects of life on an 8th AF station and the typical mission are shown in detail. Bob Hope even makes an appearance!
Far from being a 'dry' documentary, the entertaining narration by "Rhett Butler" himself only adds to the overall
impact of this fine film. [Narrated. All Color]
