Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsIn one of the scenes the American Flag has fifty stars, as it does now, but that flag was not adopted until Monday, July 4, 1960. The flag that should have been shown, which the Americans during World War Two served under, was the forty eight-star Stars and Stripes, which was valid from Thursday July 4, 1912 to Friday July 3, 1959, and is even seen hanging high in Grand Central Station in Hitchcock's North by Northwest.

- Alternate versionsThe American release has been dubbed into English. The titles have been translated to English. However, on the Direct Source Special Products Home Video Release, the film remains dubbed in English, yet the opening and ending titles have been redone using modern computer technology. The opening features the title BATTLE FORCE, and credits the film's director Humphrey Longan as Humphrey Logan; credits actress Edwige Fenech as Edwige French; and claims the cast listing to be in alphabetical order, which it is not.

Featured review
Not that bad after all
Not bad at all for an Italian war spaghetti film. Of course it is not BATTLE OF THE BULGE, BATTLE OF ENGLAND nor THE LONGEST DAY either but the international cast helps much. Not a bad story, not so far from historical accuracy, good convincing acting and poignant scenes too. Excellent battle sequences. I have seen far worse in terms of Italian spaghetti war films. Here, at least, the German army - Afrika Korps - is not shown as silly soldiers - which they certainly were not - and a difference is made between SS - Gestapo - and the Wehrmacht. I enjoyed it very much. I guess there are many more films like this, Italian movie industry from the late sixties and late seventies provided so many of them.
