  I served as a cadet in a Marine Corps JROTC Unit and this movie brings back many fond memories from that time. It would be wonderful if TCM could help make this film available in DVD. PS: Charlton Heston is great in this role as the Major!

  I have always hoped you would air this movie. I have not seen this since the 60's when I was a kid. This is a great family movie and Charleston Heston is great in it along with the other cast members. I was hoping someday it will be on DVD. Hope to see it on air!

• Great movie better than the remake

  i LOVE this movie! Heston is so wonderful in this-he is not "larger than life", he is HUMAN and proves once again that he could DO all sorts of roles! He is fun/humorous/everyman and just Splendid! This is such a great movie to "entertain" and enjoy, i cannot believe it is not on CD! i just recommend this so much for Heston fans as it is just "different"-it has humanity and silliness and just fine acting. Heston will be known for his "epic" roles, but he was a consumate actor and actually our "American" Olivier! Something to watch for the whole family....and WHY cannot movies be made like this anymore?

  This is another film I would like to see on TCM, and once again, it is not on DVD. I have been begging for months to have "Dear Ruth" shown on TCM, I wonder how long I will have to ask for this one?
