Original Title: Hills Are For Heroes: Part 1
Genge: Action,Drama,War
This two part Combat! episode is the quintessential story of the futility of war as viewed through the eyes of surviving infantrymen. An American division of troops is making an assault all along their lines. At the platoon level, Lt. Hanley is ordered to take a strategic hill that overlooks a needed road, and the hill is protected by two concrete bunkers with German machine guns and infantry in each bunker. Saunders gets hit in his thigh in the first assault on the bunkers while several other GIs are killed. Hanley asks for artillery support, but his company commander tells Hanley he will have to take the hill without artillery support. Hanley tries several different strategies to take the hill, but each time the men go up the hill, the overwhelming fire from the bunkers stop them, and each time they leave a few more dead GIs on the hill. (see "Hills Are For Heroes - Part 2 for continuation of storyline)
Directed by actor Vic Morrow (Sergeant Saunders) this episode contained some fairly modern themes of anti-war sentiment used still in war movies today like "Saving Private Ryan". The camera angles and styles used a lot of hand-held to simulate the chaos of battle that may have even influenced Spielberg's style a little. The opening scene was inspired as well, a long distance shot of a hill where you first see one head come over the rise which quickly fills out to a platoon of men spread out in a line. Quite unlike the majority of the series staid and tripod held cameras, this style gave the episode an edge of nervousness that added well to the storyline. Longtime classic Star Trek fans will recognize Gene Coon in the producer credits ( he was 'the other Gene' of Trek creation fame) and 4 recognizable faces in the guest cast were also classic Trek alumni. I won't spoil who, see if you can identify them yourself.
The plot follows that our heroes must take a certain hill overlooking a road. They run into two MG42 machine gun bunkers that quickly kills several and puts our heroes into a retreat. The unit commanders won't take no for an answer and insist throughout the episode that the hill must be taken at all costs and without aid. Lt. Hanley is put in the position between command and his troops, mainly in conflict with Kirby who keeps getting sent out to place a machine gun base-of-fire. Kirby keeps losing men and ultimately refuses to go out after several tries. The episode continues in part 2 after a mild cliff-hanger.
"Hills Are For Heroes" is a story about realities of the military and how incompetence at the top can prove fatal to many below. King 2 must knock out two firmly entrenched pillboxes containing brutal German Maschinengewehr 42 machine guns while running uphill with virtually no cover. And King 6 has no back up for them with respect to needed artillery or tanks to get the job done. As Alanis Morisette said in her hit "Isn't It Ironic," "It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife." The "old man" referred to by Company Commander could be any of many high ranking big shots who've been promoted to their level of incompetence.
Gene Coon wrote an outstanding screenplay in which dialog is phenomenal across the board. Lieutenant Gil Hanley is at his very best playing the boss. He has outstanding comebacks for all of King 2's ails & concerns and even a wise remark for the "old man." Character development amongst the squad is excellent and Littlejohn's exchange with The Sarge is priceless. Kirby is vintage Kirby when dealing with Hanley. And for a 41 year old, Caje can really pick em' up and lay em' down.
Vic Morrow directed this hugely successful episode and it must have been fun watching him busting the studio's chops going way over budget. Extremely graphic machine gun scenes, close-ups of the soldiers' terrorized faces, and coordination of mortar fire and its effects on the pillboxes give the viewing audience a sense of being there. Vic had a fine collusion with A. D. Flowers on this one. It's a wonder no one was injured making this episode.
"Hills Are For Heroes Part 1" is extremely entertaining and gives one a sense of empathy for anyone mixed up in a war, especially when the top commanding officer is incompetent. German Maschinengewehr 42 machine guns were capable of firing between 900 & 1500 rounds per minute depending on the bolt used. Just listening to two of these fine weapons going at it get's one's undivided attention.
Sit back and enjoy!
