If you are a patriot, I believe you'll enjoy this movie.Edward Charles �Ed� Carpenter, age 89, of Camdenton, Missouri, passed away Tuesday, Februat Camdenton Windsor Estates in Camdenton, Missouri.Įd was born March 5, 1923, the third child of Henry and Mary Carpenter in East St. Today's warriors and sailors are just as honorable & deserving of the kind of support that surrounds this kind of movie, and watching this production reminds you of that fact. This was a refreshing viewing experience in that the then media was supportive of the American fighting man, and while this may make some in today's culture wince, that's their problem. With some added drama along the way, this movie demonstrates some of the work done by the SeaBees - building facilities & runways on remote islands during WWII massive runway construction with PSP grid materials, bulldozing, & hut construction, which were all representative of the basics that needed accomplishing during this campaign. Navy Band's men's chorus (an astounding group of music professionals by the way) and is a dramatic performance that supports this very positive story of the Seabees. This movie's great patriotic musical score is also a fine example of strong & very well-written harmonies for male chorus the score sounds like the U.S. A fine John Wayne movie and no WWII movie collector should be without it.
