Combat Tidbits

Combat depicted the lives of one platoon of soldiers fighting their way across Europe in World War II. The long running show was very realistic, even to the point of using actual war footage in some epsiodes. And unlike many other WWII shows, this cast was sent to “boot camp” before filming began. Neither the war nor the cast was ever portrayed in a glamorous way.

Passings

Vic Morrow died in 1982 as a result of a helicopter crash on the set of “Twilight Zone:The Movie,” Dick Peabody in 1999 of prostrate cancer and Rick Jason in 2000 of self-inflicted gunshot wound.
