Gallant Goonz - Clip 3

More scenes from the excellent 1960s TV series 'The Gallant Men', this episode entitled 'The Ninety-Eight Cent Man'. Here, members of the squad set out to rescue Pvt D'Angelo, one of their own, captured by the Germans after having been earlier rescued by Italian partisans. Unfortunately for him, being an Italian speaker, he has overheard the partisans discussing the fact they have a spy in the German officer ranks, meaning the partisans have now infiltrated a man themselves into the German HQ whose mission it is to kill the American soldier before he breaks under interrogation and tells the Germans of the spy. A race against time ensues - who will succeed, if any of them? This episode was broadcast in the US on 26th October 1962. Sadly the series ran for just one season, perhaps suffering from its similarity to 'Combat' which started around the same time. It definitely deserved to run for longer.
